They still do it. Under the nascar rules are if the caution comes out after the field takes the white flag, then the race ends on the next flag (ie. yellow or checkered).

They really can save about 4 hours if they just change the Daytona 500 to the Daytona 10 and have the race just be 5 laps long, it's going to be the same result, so why waste 3 hours going in circles 200 times.

How did you mistake Byron for Bowman when their cars are totally different colors

Last time the 24 car won Daytona was 20 Daytona 500s ago

Harvick really did a good job. I’m sorry tho bowyer is terrible I can’t stand listing to him say “folks” and “hot rod” every 30.72 seconds. He doesn’t take it seriously at all.

This race was great if you enjoy Daytona and Talladega as they are raced now. I personally do not, I would rather have 5 cars in lead lap with winner winning by 5 seconds then have the disaster that was last night, and has been since 2000's. Call me old, dumb, whatever that is just my personal preference. Also, races should end under caution. This stupid "overtime" crap really gets to me. It does nothing but ruin the race in my opinion. But again this is why I don't really watch NASCAR too much anymore. One thing though that i am not sure about is the rules for when a caution is thrown after the white flag. I seem to remember that any other time this happened they would show a replay to show when the Yellow lights came on and who was in front. Now is it who was in front at that time or does it go back to the last scoring loop? Which in this case i assume the last scoring loop was the finish line. But if they go by when yellow comes out Bowman was half a car length ahead at that time. I assume its the scoring loop but i tried to search but just could not find an explanation on the rules for this.

HMS gets away with causing a wreck yet again. Take out the competition. They can do no wrong. The Fords were dominant.
