From a sponsorship standpoint, I think sponsorship will definitely [bring] betting houses and different opportunities in sportsbetting.

The organizer is now eager to change this situation before its 2019 season gets underway in mid-February via the 61st running of the iconic Daytona 500 from Florida&rsquo;s Daytona International Speedway.<\/font><\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\"><font size=\"4\"><em>&ldquo;The way the rulebook looks today, I think the teams and the drivers understand what it looks like, and I think we&rsquo;ll clarify for 2019 with more specific language in it. For right now, there&rsquo;ll be betting here. We&rsquo;ll study and see how that goes but I think we&rsquo;ll have some rules in place for sponsorship, for what betting looks like and continue to see what happens in the landscape overall.&rdquo;<\/em> Explained Steve Phelps, President of NASCAR<\/font><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Although NASCAR employees are currently prohibited from wagering on the outcome of races, the organization\u2019s rule book reportedly does not explicitly outlaw drivers and team members from placing bets.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":4474,"menu_order":587,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"inline_featured_image":false,"_genesis_hide_title":false,"_genesis_hide_breadcrumbs":false,"_genesis_hide_singular_image":false,"_genesis_hide_footer_widgets":false,"_genesis_custom_body_class":"","_genesis_custom_post_class":"","_genesis_layout":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[],"tags":[1585,179,1586],"class_list":["post-4473","america","type-america","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","tag-nascar-betting-sports","tag-news","tag-steve-phelps","entry"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v25.6 -
