The 2024 NASCAR season is officially underway as qualifying continues for the Daytona 500. The race is scheduled for Sunday and we already know who will be sitting on the front row. On Wednesday, Joey Logano claimed pole position and Michael McDowell claimed the No. 2 spot to join him on the front row.
Qualifying continues on Thursday with the Bluegreen Vacations Duel races. Logano will start in the first position for Duel 1 and McDowell will start in the front for Duel 2. The finishing order from Duel 1 will set the inside of each row at the Daytona 500 while the finishing order from Duel 2 will set the outside of each row at the Great American Race.
The Duels are on FS1 and will be available via live stream at Fox Sports Live. Duel 1 starts at 7 p.m. ET and Duel 2 starts at approximately 8:45 p.m. The latter race will depend on when the first one finishes.
