It’s a battle of the manufactures here this weekend. Toyota sits at a significant disadvantage when it comes to superspeedway racing. They have far less cars to work with.

Daytona Practice
Report

Duration: 50 minutes

Joey Logano is the first car on the race track. He’s making a single car run.

3 minutes in, Jimmie Johnson has spun exiting the garage area and onto the pit lane. Team Chevy is on the race track. 10 Chevrolets have lines up single file on the track. This was planned days ago.

7 minutes in, the caution is out for debris on the race track. The Chevy camp will be forced to the garage. The debris is off the #3 of Austin Dillon.

20 minutes in, the Chevy group is formed on the track once more. The lone Toyota of Erik Jones has joined the group. He pulls out of line but none of them are going to roll with him. Erik Jones will tag on the back of the Chevy group. It’s going to be hard for the Toyota group to learn much about pack racing today.

Halfway in Daytona Practice: 1. Ty Dillon (44.847); 2. Chris Buescher (44.857); 3. Jimmie Johnson (44.921); 4. Austin Dillon (44.922); 5. Daniel Hemric (44.931); 6. Kyle Larson (44.933); 7. Kurt Busch (44.934); 8. Chase Elliott (44.935); 9. William Byron (44.938); 10. Alex Bowman (44.938);

30 minutes in, the scoreboard is dominated by Chevy drivers. However, the Fords are on the track. Eleven Fords and Kyle Busch line up around the bottom. Kyle Busch jumps to the top of the board, he was at the tail of the Ford line.

We’re seeing massive runs. At the same time, we’re seeing the wall of air slow cars drastically when they pull out of line.

11 minutes remain in practice but lightning is in the area, ending practice. Kyle Busch wins the opening round of NASCAR practice!
