Dale Earnhardt Jr. was destined to be in the NASCAR Hall of Fame long before his full-time racing career ended. And Friday, he, along with Red Farmer and Mike Stefanik, will be inducted in the Hall of Fame as part of the 2021 class.
NASCAR’s 15-time most popular driver was voted into the NASCAR Hall of Fame in June of 2020, but the induction ceremony for the 2021 class, originally set for February 2021, was postponed because of the COVID-19 pandemic. The ceremony is now set for Friday in Charlotte (8 p.m. ET, Peacock).
