The Washington Examiner confirmed:
President Donald Trump is scheduled to attend Sunday’s Daytona 500 race, marking the second major sporting event he will attend in about a week since returning to the White House.
The iconic 500-mile race, held in Daytona Beach, Florida, opens NASCAR’s season, with the green flag dropping at 2:30 p.m. Sunday. Trump previously attended the event in 2020, taking a lap around the track in The Beast.
Trump also gave the command for racers to “start your engines” at the start of the 2020 race.
While President Trump is expected to be at the race on Sunday, we don’t know if he will be bringing Melania, Barron, or any of his family with him.
The Daytona Beach News-Journal commented:
It’s official: President Donald Trump is going to the Daytona 500 − again.
ADVERTISEMENTUnknown: Will First Lady Melania Trump be there, too?
The couple has attended the Great American Race at Daytona International Speedway in Daytona Beach, Florida, several times in the past, most notably in 2020 when Donald Trump served as the Grand Marshal for the NASCAR race.
The presidential visit comes a week after Donald Trump made history by attending Super Bowl LIX in New Orleans, Louisiana, the first time a sitting president has done so. Though he had his family members in tow including Donald Trump Jr., Ivanka Trump and Eric Trump, youngest daughter Tiffany Trump, the first lady and their only child, Barron Trump, did not attend.
We will see, for sure, this Sunday!
