Countdown to the DAYTONA 500: 18 Days To Go

Today marks 18 days before the NASCAR Cup Series drivers suit up for the biggest race of the year, the 2025 DAYTONA 500. The number “18” represents a record-setting achievement in the Great American Race. The youngest driver to ever race in the DAYTONA 500 was Joey Logano, whose first start in 2009 was at the age of 18 years, eight months and 22 days.

He returned to win the 2015 DAYTONA 500 and is currently the reigning three-time NASCAR Cup Series champion.
