Ryan Blaney comes in from the 14th position and contending is likely

There is a bit of all or nothing with Blaney and when he is on, he is on. What does that mean? Blaney has wound up second in the Daytona 500 twice (2017 and 2020). There have been several crashes and breakdowns but when the driver is able to negotiate the field, he winds up […]

Daniel Suarez will start 15th but finishing the race is questionable.

Suarez parlayed a decent run in the duels and a solid qualifying time into the 15th starting position at this year's Daytona 500. On the other hand, Suarez has raced seven times at the 2.5-mile track and six times the man from Monterrey has crashed. The only finish was the 2017 Coke Cola 400. Suarez […]

DiBenedetto has one top-ten finish in the Daytona 500 in 2017 where he finished in ninth. Other than that, the Menards driver has not finished every lap and has crashed out a couple of times as well. In 2019, he did lead nearly 50 laps but he started ninth. Now this year, he is starting […]

Ian Heinisch Unable To Win Back-To-Back Bouts

Ian Heinisch (14-4) was unable to get his hand raised on Saturday, dropping a unanimous decision to Kelvin Gastelum. Statistically, Heinisch was able to keep the numbers reasonably close, landing 27 significant strikes (56 total strikes) over 15 minutes of action.

Brian Kelleher Unable To Start His Year Off With A Win

A big cut early in the fight on Saturday and Ricky Simon's solid ground game were just too much for Brian Kelleher (22-12) to overcome. Kelleher ended up on the mat too many times, being taken down six out of nine times. In the striking department, Kelleher did land a beautiful front kick, but he […]

Chris Buescher hangs around in top-20 yet will improve track position

Buescher showed the ability to drive Daytona after a few crashes early on in his experiences at the racetrack. Even when he qualifies outside the top-15, there was a noticeable change last season. Buescher was able to negotiate traffic, weather adversity, and thrive. The results were noticeable. He finished third in 2020 and the thought […]

Kevin Harvick Rolls Off Eighth In Daytona 500

Stewart Haas Racing's Kevin Harvick will start eighth in Sunday's Daytona 500. Harvick had arguably the greatest season ever by a non-champion in 2020, with nine wins and 27 top 10s in 36 races. But he only found the top 10 in 50 percent of the superspeedway races last year, and an eighth-place starting spot […]

Christopher Bell starts fifth and will be a good option on raceday.

Bell was the victim of some bad luck last year as he was able to stay on the last lap when a crash derailed him with four laps to go. The second time at Daytona saw him nearly nab a top-ten finish. He is not even 30 yet but Bell races with the experience of […]
