DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. (AP) -- NASCAR is taking a look at the format of the Chase for the Sprint Cup championship format, with chairman Brian France wanting to create more "big-impact moments."
The Chase was one of several topics France covered Friday during a question-and-answer session.
Also under consideration is changes to the second-tier Nationwide Series that could affect the participation of Cup drivers.
France adds that both International Speedway Corp. and Speedway Motorsports Inc. have made scheduling requests for 2011.
