The 63rd running of the Daytona 500 begins a highly anticipated season that features new teams, drivers in new rides, a revamped schedule and much more. A field of 40 drivers will battle in The Great American Race (2:30 p.m. ET on FOX, MRN, SiriusXM NASCAR Radio) with one hoisting the Harley J. Earl trophy in the end. Eight drivers in the race are a previous Daytona 500 champion with Denny Hamlin the only multiple winner (2016, 2019, 2020). The other former winners are: Austin Dillon (2018), Kurt Busch (2017), Joey Logano (2015), Jamie McMurray (2010), Ryan Newman (2008), Kevin Harvick (2007) and Derrike Cope (1990).
“The Daytona 500 is the most prestigious stock car race of all," Busch said. "To win it, it changes peoples’ lives. The title that comes along with it is important, nostalgic, historic and it’s a pride feeling when you win this race. And so, the drive and the fuel for me is to go get it again and to keep it from others."
