The NASCAR All-Star Race on Wednesday evening will be a source of much on-track experimentation for the sport and a high-risk social distancing tightrope in the stands. There are expected to be 30,000 people on hand at Bristol Motor Speedway.

A qualifying competition called the All-Star Open determined the final spots of the 20-entrant field, giving Aric Almirola, William Byron, Matt DiBenedetto and Clint Bowyer a chance to ride in the main event. Bubba Wallace, meanwhile, wrecked in the Open and was not happy about it.

Sporting News is tracking live race updates and lap-by-lap highlights from the 2020 NASCAR All-Star races at Bristol. Follow below for complete results.

NASCAR All-Star Race live updates, highlights from Bristol

NASCAR All-Star Race results

9:59 p.m.: Elliott still leads late in Stage 3. There are four stages in this event.

9:44 p.m.: Chase Elliott wins Stage 2. The lack of stage-by-stage incentive is a clear oversight in this All-Star format — there's no monetary winning attached to the stages and it's eating into the competitiveness of the event.

9:20 p.m.: Ryan Blaney holds a slight edge through the first 40 laps.

The All-Star Open starting grid was determined similarly to how lineups for Cup Series races have been set since NASCAR's return from its coronavirus pause. NASCAR is mostly using random draws while it proceeds without qualifying and practice sessions prior to races to limit time spent at the track amid the COVID-19 pandemic.

Below is the protocol for how the All-Star Open field was set at Bristol:

  • Positions 1-12: Random draw from the top 12 teams in owner points.
  • Positions 13-22: Random draw from the remaining teams.
