* – NASCAR rules state that if a driver, car, engine, or transmission change is made by the team, that car starts the race in the back of the field. For the Daytona 500, the rule applies to a car if a crash took place in the Gatorade Duel or in the Friday or Saturday practice. An engine or transmission change was permitted after the Gatorade Duel, so the engine and transmission used in Friday practice had to be used in Saturday practice and the race. The penalty for an engine or transmission change applies only if a second engine change was made after the Gatorade Duel once Friday practice begins.

“Only in books the flat and final happens,
Only in dreams we meet and interlock....”

“The chief benefit, which results from philosophy, arises in an indirect manner, and proceeds more from its secret, insensible influence, than from its immediate application.”
