His teammate Alex Bowman also made the first row, setting a time of 49.711 seconds at a speed of 181.046 mph. The Great American Race starting grid is now set after both Duels. The Daytona 500 will see a full 40-car field for its 64th edition.

The #5 Chevrolet Camaro driver is in a good position to win his first Daytona 500. Not only is Kyle Larson the defending Cup Series champion, but his dominance last season makes him an easy favorite for the event. Larson’s dominant run in the 2021 Cup Series was marked by 10 race wins and 26 top-10s in 36 races.
