NASCAR

The Official NASCAR winner of the race shall be the winner of the race for wagering purposes.

In Head-to-Head or Three-way matchups, all drivers must start the race in order to be considered "in action."

In addition, a driver is considered starting the race after having driven one lap.

In the event a starting driver who has completed at least one lap, but is replaced during the race with another driver for any reason, the starting driver will be awarded the finishing driver's position at the end of the race.

Example
Driver John starts the race and completes 10 laps, but leaves the race due to injury. Driver Mike finishes the race and places 10th.

In the race standings, driver John would be credited with a 10th place finish.
