Countdown to the DAYTONA 500: 19 Days To Go

by Reid Spencer, NASCAR Wire Service

Today marks 19 days before the NASCAR Cup Series drivers compete in the 67th running of the Great American Race. For anyone who qualifies mid-pack, the 19th-place starting position isn’t a bad spot on the grid. Three drivers have won NASCAR’s most prestigious race after qualifying 19th—LeeRoy Yarbrough in 1969, Michael Waltrip in 2001 and Ward Burton in 2002. In contrast, no driver has ever won the DAYTONA 500 from 20th.

Tune-in to the 2025 DAYTONA 500 on Sunday, February 16 at 2:30 p.m. ET on FOX, MRN and SiriusXM NASCAR Radio.

Depth Perception: Rick Ware Racing Brings Deep Driver Roster to Cook Out Clash at Bowman Gray

MOORESVILLE, N.C. (Jan. 28, 2025) – In theory, the Cook Out Clash at Bowman Gray provides a level playing field for NASCAR Cup Series drivers and teams. NASCAR’s premier series hasn’t competed at the quarter-mile, asphalt oval in Winston-Salem, North Carolina, since the Nixon administration, so there is no past data to benchmark. Instead, it’s an educated guess thanks to the brave new world of simulation.
