Massive Moment For New York State At The Daytona 500

The Daytona 500 finally finished after a rain delay this past Sunday and New York State was well represented.

The end of the race was typically chaotic with a last lap wreck that allowed William Byron to get to the checkered flag first. William Byron became the fifth NASCAR driver to record back-to-back wins at the Daytona 500!

Among the highlights of the race, and an appearance from President Donald Trump, was the National Anthem.
