Donald Trump is planning to attend Sunday's Daytona 500 for the second time as president and help further burnish his image as a sports fan.
He was at the race in 2020 while running for a second term. Trump was given the honor of being grand marshal of NASCAR's biggest and most prestigious event of the year and delivered the command for drivers to start their engines.
Trump also thrilled thousands of NASCAR fans in the stands with an Air Force One flyover before he rode in the presidential limousine onto the Daytona International Speedway.
