Look: NASCAR press box is strange sight during return to racing
NASCAR became the first American sport to return to action on Sunday, and some weird sights came with it.
Perhaps the weirdest came from the press box. Normally packed with writers, things were different on Sunday due to strict social distancing guidelines, and provided a glimpse of what may be our new normal for the foreseeable future.

Seee?
We're social distancing….with masks

It’s a strange sight, to be sure. When other sports return, we’ll probably see similar sights in their press areas.
As for the race itself, however, things looked pretty normal. Everyone is probably happy that we’re not rage-quitting during iRacing anymore.
