NASCAR driver Austin Dillon has tested positive for COVID-19 and will miss some races while he recovers from the virus.

Dillon reported the news Saturday that he was self-quarantining away from his family who healthy and symptom-free according to a statement.

NASCAR returned in May although other sports have pushed their seasons back until next year. Dillion will be able to return once he receives two negative COVID-19 results.

Dillon missed a race over the weekend, and driver Kaz Gala replaced him in the Go Bowling 235.
