NASCAR Driver Ross Chastain Went Through the McDonald's Drive-Thru During the Rain Delay at the Daytona 500

It's only right that Ross Chastain ended the Daytona 500 inside the Top 10 after he pulled off the move of the day by leaving the track during the hours-long rain delay and picking up McDonald's for his entire crew. This is how you lead.

I do have several questions/complaints, however. First of all, McDonald's is one of Chastian's primary sponsors and he still has to run his card at the Daytona location? I feel like he needs to have free McNuggets for life written into the next sponsorship contract. Additionally, you have to pull up in the race car. That McDonald's — according to my Apple Maps calculations — was less than a mile away. Give the people what they want.

Regardless, Chastain had himself a hell of a day, finishing sixth in the Great American Race in his first appearance with his new car and team and made some headlines for grabbing some lunch between the start and finish.
