The biggest race of the year is the opening race for the NASCAR season. It seems a little backwards, but it definitely leads to the immediate attention ramp for the season as a whole. That being said, the track drivers the same as usual, the cars are the same as they always are on this track and there are no special rules in place this week, outside of the restrictor plates on the engines that is.
Daytona International Speedway is the host for the race, the most famous track on the NASCAR schedule. It’s a 2.5-mile Tri-Oval circuit per lap with banking in the turns at 31 degrees and then middle of the Tri-Oval is banked at 18 degrees. It’s the second-longest and second-steepest banked track on the schedule only behind Talladega which also means it’s one of the fastest tracks out there with speeds easily cracking 200 mph throughout the race. It might look like a smooth ride around the large oval, but that doesn’t mean that the race goes smoothly…ever.
The last five winners of the Daytona 500 started as follows:
2018: 14
2017: 8
2016: 11
2015: 5
2014: 9
That’s quite a bit of inconsistency in the starting spots, and that doesn’t even include the guys that start in the thirties and finish near the top-10…unlike any other tracks out there except for Talladega. That is the case with restrictor plate races, it just is.
In case you didn’t know, a restrictor plate literally refers to a metal plate with specific sized holes in it that gets mounted to the engine in order to restrict the horse power of all of the cars, in effect to help slow them down and make the track safer to race on. However, a side effect to that is it creating pack racing and dangerous conditions to draft and try and pass in and major crashes in every race that happens at these tracks.
Don’t worry though, what follows is a complete track breakdown to give you all of the relevant stats for the race to help you pick the best drivers to focus on throughout the week.
