The Daytona 500 is set to start in just 30 minutes. 🏁 Don't miss our picks and preview below. ⬇️⬇️
Daytona International Speedway is a fast 2.5-mile-high banked superspeedway that differs from all but one other track on the schedule: Talladega. These two tracks produce four of the 36 points-paying races over the course of a season and look entirely different than the other 32 events.
The good ones on these tracks are good for a reason and can sense when the pack is getting too aggressive and sometimes find a way out of it in order to avoid the incoming carnage. However, there are times too where they can’t get out in time and end up wadded up in the infield like the rest of them.
Weather can sometimes impact this race, which could alter strategy. Lap 101 would make this an official race. The last win for the second-place starter came in 1993 . They have only finished in the Top 10 four times since 2006. Just five times in the last 27 years has the second-place starter come home with a Top-5 finish.
