Noah Gragson does priceless interview with The Rizzler amid Daytona 500 rain delay

Some drivers pass the time during a weather delay eating snacks and spending time with their families. When you’re Noah Gragson, you hang out with The Rizzler.

The 67th running of the Daytona 500 is currently under the red flag for rain. Gragson is using the extra time to open Panini NASCAR cards with the 8-year-old social media personality. FOX Sports pit reporter Josh Sims caught up with the two at Gragson’s hauler.

“The Rizzler — we’ve been hanging out opening some Panini NASCAR cards, checking out the cards, got some gloves for The Rizzler,” Gragson said. “This is a king right here. We’re having some fun and enjoying this rain delay here at the Daytona 500.”

Both gave the “Rizz Face” for the camera, before The Rizzler offered a tutorial for Sims and the fans watching at home. The Rizzler then asked FOX Sports‘ Chris Myers to give his own version of the “Rizz Face” on the FOX broadcast.

Myers *sort of* did it before offering an apology.

“Alright, sorry Rizz. I don’t really do the Rizz,” Myers said.

Gragson has plenty of time to learn how to properly give the “Rizz Face” with the rain delay still in effect. But with the rain lightening up, NASCAR is currently drying the track in hopes of getting the race back underway.

With only 11-of-200 laps completed, it’s anybody’s race for the taking. 2022 Daytona 500 champion Austin Cindric is credited as the current leader, with Ty Dillon, Chase Briscoe, Joey Logano and Bubba Wallace rounding out the top five.

Gragson, making his fourth Daytona 500 start, is back in 35th. Gragson recently shared some advice he received from two-time Daytona 500 champion Dale Earnhardt Jr. on how to approach the Great American Race.

“Every time I’ve been down here, I’ve just been trying to learn as much as possible and just make as many notes on different positions,” Gragson said on SiriusXM NASCAR Radio. “Dale Jr. gave me the best advice that I’ve had in my career for superspeedways back when I was racing at JR Motorsports.

“He said, ‘Treat every superspeedway race like it’s a rental Go-Kart race.’ Like you’re going out to the rental Go-Kart track. You’ve got to make moves all day and try and get yourself up to the front. But if you get hung out in the middle, three-wide, go to the back, use it to learn and see what your car does throughout the whole race.”
