A total of 10 cars will drop to the rear of the field before the start of Sunday’s Daytona 500 (1:30 p.m. ET, FOX, MRN Radio, SiriusXM NASCAR Radio) at Daytona International Speedway.

A pair of Cup Series champions each looking for their first Daytona 500 crowns in Brad Keselowski and Kyle Larson, as well as four-time Indy 500 champion Hélio Castroneves, are among those that will drop to the back before the green flag for the 67th "Great American Race."
