The Coke Zeror 400 regular season winds down At Daytona




Even though the Coke Zero Sugar 400 is not the last chance for "outside" drivers to win and qualify for the playoffs, Daytona and its racing format continue to offer the greatest opportunity for many teams and drivers.


Up to now this season, twelve drivers have earned spots in the playoffs by winning a race each. There is a chance for two additional drivers to accomplish this in the next two weekends. The remaining positions in the 16-team playoff lineup are determined by the season-long point standings, which are currently the focus of a closely fought competition.


Ross Chastain is currently in 16th place, trailing Chris Buescher by 15 points in 15th place, and leading Bubba Wallace by just one point in 17th place.


Each race has the potential to impact the playoff standings and shake up the points battle, especially at Daytona where unexpected underdog victories are common and The Big One can suddenly eliminate numerous top contenders.
