NASCAR postponing May events at Martinsville Speedway

The intention is to still have events in May, at a later date, with no fans in attendance, the statement read.

With this latest development, it seems more likely that NASCAR continues with its virtual iRacing events in the near future instead of returning to the track any time soon.

However, NASCAR has been under fire as of late due to these virtual iRacing events. Driver Kyle Larson was fired by Chip Ganassi racing and suspended indefinitely by NASCAR for using a racial slur during one of the virtual events.

Bubba Wallace has also been scolded for being aggressive and quitting one of the events after getting frustrated.
