The Sprint Cup series race scheduled for Sunday at Pocono has been postponed until Monday due to intermittent rain in the area. A heavy downpour in the morning had already pushed back the start of the race, with officials estimating a delay of around an hour and a half that would give them enough time to get the track race ready. However, a similar situation as the one experienced by the Indycar Series at Kentucky further delayed procedures, as weepers on the track surface didn't allow the track to be raceable still.
