Daytona Duels 2021 Preview
Alex Bowman secured a record fourth consecutive Daytona 500 front-row start on Wednesday, posting a 47.056-second lap in qualifying for pole position in the main event and Duel 1.
He edged out his Hendrick Motorsports teammate William Byron, who went around in 47.314 seconds to claim the Daytona 500 outside pole and the Duel 2 pole.
The pair also composed the front row in the 2019 Daytona 500, with Byron in pole position. Hendrick Motorsports has now claimed 14 poles in the Daytona 500.
“It doesn’t really have a whole lot to do with me, right?” Bowman said Wednesday after qualifying, according to Sporting News. “It’s a testament to these guys and everybody back in the shop at Hendrick Motorsports. They work so hard on these superspeedway cars. They are beautiful when they get to the race track. Our Ally Camaro has been really fast since we unloaded and they focused a lot on trying to get the pole for the Daytona 500.
“It means a lot to us and we were able to achieve that.”
A year ago, Byron claimed fourth position by winning Duel 2 after placing eighth in qualifying. Joey Logano, who finished 11th in qualifying that year, won Duel 1 for inside position in the second row.
Logano had the 21st-fasting time in qualifying this time around, meaning he’ll start in 11th position in Duel 1. He’s looking for his second Daytona 500 victory and his 27th Cup Series win.
“Yeah, I’m not satisfied. Like, it’s never enough,” Logano told The Arizona Republic on Wednesday. “I know in life saying ‘it’s never enough’ is not a healthy thing, but in sports, I think it’s the healthiest thing you can have. Saying, ‘Where is there more? Where is there more?’ I think that’s what’s kept our consistency there.
“It means you can’t get complacent.”
