Anything Could happen at Daytona International Speedway.
The 2.5-mile tri-oval produces serious speed and constant threat.
Talladega is not more narrow than Daytona and may create some crashes at crucial moments. The race this year featured as it took out nearly half the field, a huge mess that was a part of the finish.
As a mess took out a good portion of the drivers last year’s second race in Daytona saw exactly the exact same difficulty.
So while it’s easy to point to motorists who have chances to win this week (Joey Logano, Kyle Busch, Denny Hamlin), there is a reason the chances are not crazy low for drivers down the line to find a win. The lowest odds of any driver that is named is 100/1 for Ty Dillon.
This race is all about becoming and living to the last laps beating, and getting away from risk and starting up front will be enormous. Ten of the previous 14 winners of this race have begun in the top 11, so qualifying will be crucial.
And we do think one of Busch, Logano or even Hamlin may come away with the win. However, this year, when picking Kyle Busch has been the policy we’ll proceed to triumph this week, but we fully acknowledge , certainly anything could happen.
The Coke Zero Sugar 400 starts at 7:30 p.m. ET on Saturday.
