Time, TV and streaming info for Daytona 500

0 5

The Daytona 500 is nearly here, and we have all you need to know to follow the action on Sunday.

The 61st running of the Daytona 500 will kick off the 2019 NASCAR Cup Series season on Sunday. William Byron and Alex Bowman have the front row of the race, which is set to begin at 2:30 p.m. ET and broadcast by FOX (live streaming via FOX Sports GO, FuboTV).

Byron had a near-incident in the first Duel on Thursday, and quickly dropped back from the front of the pack to nearer the back, as he wasn’t racing for anything after getting pole position. His only job was to keep his car intact, same as Bowman, and they did so, finishing 16th and 13th in the Duels.

“I thought we were going to be somewhere in the hunt,” Byron said of qualifying. “I was excited to get down here and see what we had. It’s really cool.”

Byron and Bowman qualifying in the top two spots is an impressive feat for Hendrick Motorsports, as noted by Hendrick himself.

“To have them on top of each other means the organization did a heck of a job,” Hendrick said. “This is the deal to sit on the pole at Daytona.”

The winner of the Duels were Kevin Harvick in the first one, and Joey Logano in the second, though it looked like Clint Bowyer was going to win the latter until the very last lap. After leading for over 35 laps, Bowyer was passed by Logano, assisted by teammate Ryan Blaney, on the final lap.

Harvick will start third on the grid, while Logano will start fourth. The third row will be comprised of Ricky Stenhouse Jr. and Clint Bowyer.

The first Duel finishing order determined the odd-numbered placements on the final grid, while the second Duel determined the even numbers.

Of the six non-charter teams competing for four spots, Parker Kligerman of Gaunt Brothers Racing, Brendan Gaughan of Beard Motorsports, Tyler Reddick of Richard Childress Racing and Casey Mears of Germain Racing are the ones who made it to the final grid.
