Updated: 12/11/2025, 6:22:30 PM Wikipedia source
The 2025 Daytona 500 was a NASCAR Cup Series race and the 67th running of the event, held on Sunday, February 16, 2025, at Daytona International Speedway in Daytona Beach, Florida. It was the first race of the 2025 NASCAR Cup Series season. William Byron of Hendrick Motorsports won his second straight Daytona 500 after Denny Hamlin, Cole Custer, and Chase Briscoe made contact while battling for the lead on the final lap, causing a crash that took out most of the field. Byron, who was seventh at the time of the contact, avoided the crash on the high line and held off Tyler Reddick for the final third of the lap to win. Two-time race champion and seven-time series champion Jimmie Johnson finished 3rd. Polesitter Chase Briscoe and John Hunter Nemechek rounded out the top five, and Alex Bowman, Ryan Blaney, Austin Cindric, Justin Allgaier, and Chris Buescher rounded out the top ten. Cindric and Team Penske teammate Joey Logano dominated much of the race, which finished nearly eight hours after it started due to a thunderstorm.
