The Daytona 500 got off to a rocky start, but one driver took advantage of the unexpected delay in an unexpected way.
After a huge wreck on Lap 14 involving 16 cars led to a red flag, NASCAR extended the delay due to rain and lightning.
While you might think the last thing a driver would want to do when they are about to drive nearly 500 more miles is drive somewhere, Chase Briscoe decided the delay would be a good time to go get some fast food.
During the break, Marissa Briscoe shared a photo of her husband in a Panda Express drive-thru, ordering food, and still wearing his racing fire suit.

According to Google Maps, the Panda Express is just across the street from the racetrack.
