Countdown to the Daytona 500: Five Days

5: Only five days before the 2024 season opens with NASCAR’s crown jewel, the DAYTONA 500 at Daytona International Speedway. Of all the great drivers who have driven the No. 5 in their NASCAR Cup Series careers, the car number has only one win in The Great American Race. Geoffrey Bodine won that race driving a Hendrick Motorsports Chevrolet in 1986 starting from the outside pole position and leading a dominating 101 of the 200 laps. He finished more than 11 seconds ahead of runner-up NASCAR Hall of Famer Terry Labonte who would ironically go on to win the 1996 championship in that No. 5 Hendrick Chevrolet. Kyle Larson, the 2021 NASCAR Cup Series champion, now drives the No. 5 and he is a perpetual favorite to put that back in any track’s Victory Lane – perhaps capturing his first DAYTONA 500 victory in five days. – Holly Cain

Tune in to the 2024 DAYTONA 500 on Sunday, February 18 at 2:30 p.m. ET on FOX, MRN, and SiriusXM NASCAR Radio.
