With the completion of Thursday’s Duels at Daytona International Speedway, the starting lineup for the 2025 Daytona 500 has been set!
Chase Briscoe, driver of the No. 19 Bass Pro Shops Toyota Camry XSE, kept his nose clean-ish during the first Duel, thus keeping his spot on the pole for ‘The Great American Race’. Austin Cindric managed to capture the victory in the second Duel, thus locking in his spot as the second-place qualifier for Sunday’s 500-mile contest.
Bubba Wallace (Duel 1 winner) and Erik Jones (Duel 2 almost-winner) will line up from third and fourth on Sunday, with William Byron completing the top-five starters. Chris Buescher, Ty Dillon, Denny Hamlin, Ross Chastain, and Joey Logano will round out the top-10.
