Davis said he tested positive Thursday and his team’s entry has pulled out of the Michigan race.

Davis is 18th in the Truck Series standings after nine races. His best finish this season was 12th at Las Vegas in February.
Davis is the second full-time NASCAR driver in the sport’s top-three national divisions to receive a positive coronavirus test. Seven-time NASCAR Cup Series champion Jimmie Johnson tested positive in July and missed one race, at Indianapolis Motor Speedway.
NASCAR does not test for COVID-19. Davis got the test on his own.
