Justin Haley has been medically cleared to return to the competition at Circuit of the Americas after a one-week absence because of COVID-19 protocols.
Haley was pulled from the entry list last Friday in accordance with NASCAR’s COVID-19 protocols due to which he missed both his No. 11 Kaulig Racing Chevrolet in the Xfinity Series and No. 77 Spire Motorsports Chevrolet in the Cup Series last weekend at Dover International Speedway.
He will return to Kaulig’s No. 11 Chevrolet for the Xfinity race at Circuit of The Americas.

NASCAR confirmed last week that the driver will be given a waiver to compete in the Xfinity playoffs if he is able to qualify. Haley has also been entered in Spire’s No. 77 in Cup in the upcoming race.
He has six top 10s in nine Xfinity races so far this season. He has also taken part in Cup Series 10 times.
