The Duel races are complete.

Ladies and gentlemen… it’s time for the 2021 Daytona 500! It was a late night on Thursday before the final field was set for this year’s Great American Race, but we now have the 40 drivers confirmed to race on Sunday–plus where they will line up.

Please note: several cars are expected to drop to the rear for the start of this race due to unapproved adjustments or backup cars. In Fantasy NASCAR, though, they will still be scored from their original starting position (the one listed below).
