DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. – Joey Logano made his mistakes early, Denny Hamlin made his late and therein was the difference in Sunday’s Advance Auto Parts Clash at Daytona International Speedway.

 

It was the first win for the Team Penske driver in the non-points event but Logano’s been to Victory Lane here before – two years ago he stood in the Winner’s Circle and hoisted the Harley J. Earl trophy overhead as champion of the Daytona 500.

 

The Clash isn’t a points-paying event, but teams don’t have to look far for incentives. It’s a race, and for most that’s more than enough. And because Saturday’s weather refused to cooperate, this year’s running of the 75-lap event was pushed to Sunday, run under sunny skies instead of the glare of lights and gave teams a better idea of what to expect a week from today when the 2017 season officially gets underway.

 

“This track definitely changes a lot when the sun comes out and the draft really works completely different,” Logano said afterward. “To be able to get a good read on how that’s going to be for next Sunday is going to be nice.”

Daylight or dark didn’t matter when Logano’s teammate, Brad Keselowski, went barreling into Turn 1 in pursuit of Hamlin with less than one lap remaining. Hamlin, the defending Daytona 500 winner, did the only thing he could – he dropped low in an attempt to block the No. 2 Ford.

 

By now you know the rest of the story. There was contact between the two, Logano shot to the high side and three-quarters of a lap later took the checkered flag.

 

“Denny had to make the block,” Logano acknowledged, “but I was able to see the block was coming way too late and it wasn’t going to work.”

 

Mistakes made by the driver of the No. 22 Ford were of little consequence because they were primarily moves during the opening 25-lap segment. “I was definitely a little bit rusty from the last time I went superspeedway racing,” Logano said, “and Tab (Boyd, spotter) and myself … we were able to kind of clean up our mistakes for later in the race.”

Kyle Busch finished second and while the Joe Gibbs Racing driver wasn’t incensed, he said he was disappointed that Alex Bowman, third by inches, chose not to team up to try and run Logano down after the Keselowski/Hamlin fireworks.

 

Busch said he “thought I had a shot with him if we could have got together a little bit better and him push me, we both could have got back up to the 22, I felt like. He would have been a sitting duck and we both could have raced for the win.”

 

But, he said, Bowman had “other plans, which is fine.”

 

Bowman, making a one-off start in the Hendrick Motorsports No. 88 in place of regular driver Dale Earnhardt Jr., said he was more focused on trying to finish second and was unaware Logano was running solo out front.

 

“Just trying to better our position and get to second and use my run,” he said. “You know, it’s just racing. No worries either way.”

While we understand this may be more of a coincidence than a correlation, results from the season-opening Advance Auto Parts Clash could be an accurate predictor for a championship push.


Since the postseason format shifted to an elimination-style setup prior to the 2014 season, one finisher in the top three of the season-opening, non-points race has advanced to the four-driver Championship Round at Miami.


That’s good news for Sunday’s winner Joey Logano, runner-up Kyle Busch and third place … uh, Alex Bowman. Bowman doesn’t have a full-time ride for 2017, so while he filled in beautifully for Dale Earnhardt Jr. in "The Clash," we don’t expect him in the championship round.


That leaves Logano and Busch as the drivers looking to carry the torch here, and they are two perfect candidates. In three postseasons, Busch (2016, 2015) and Logano (2016, 2014) have each made it to the championship battle twice. Both were in the field last year when Jimmie Johnson sped to his record-tying seventh title.


Here’s a look back at the previous three years in the Advance Auto Parts Clash:


2016

1. Denny Hamlin

2. Joey Logano (Made Championship 4)

3. Paul Menard


2015

NEW SMYRNA BEACH, Fla. — Ronnie Bassett Jr. sat in contemplation last May, having rushed to witness first-hand the devastating fire that tore through his family-owned team’s race shop in Winston-Salem, North Carolina.

While thankfully no one was injured, the material loss was heavy, with little to salvage in the way of cars, tools, equipment and the team’s hauler. Sifting through cinders in the days after the blaze, Bassett said he wondered what would come next for him and his brother, Dillon, a pair of next-generation racers.

“We were sitting there scratching our heads,” Bassett says. “We didn’t know whether we were going to be able to race again the rest of that season or what.”

Sunday night, nearly nine months after their loss, came victory. The 21-year-old Bassett emerged from a frantic second half of the season-opening Jet Tools 150 to score his first NASCAR K&N Pro Series East victory at New Smyrna Speedway. The win also soothed the heartbreak of last year’s K&N opener, where an official scoring check after the checkered flag kept Bassett from Victory Lane.

Bassett’s convincing victory, which included a late-race stretch of running 1-2 with his brother, belies the adversity that his family has faced. Working with insurance to rebuild their own shop has been a gradual process, and the family racing operation is now spread over three buildings in their hometown — a small warehouse for primary cars, a shed for parts and another space serving as a makeshift fabrication shop.

“We’re just trying to make it happen,” said Ronnie Bassett Sr., who enjoyed a successful career in the Sportsman division at Bowman Gray Stadium. “They don’t have much to work out of. It’s a tight spot, I can tell you that.”

What has helped has been a devoted crew, and fellow racers David Calabrese and Brandon Gdovic lending a hand with equipment to help the team finish out 2016 with a part-time slate.

“We just prayed to the good Lord about it to see what needed to be done,” Bassett Jr. said. “It kind of worked out. We have more than what we had when we were working out of our other shop. We’ve been blessed with a lot of great people.”

Bassett Jr. led the final 42 laps, sweating through a pair of red flags for accidents, including a final stack-up near the front of the field that knocked his brother and NASCAR Next driver Tyler Dippel from contention. It marked the first laps led in a K&N East career that’s spanned 40 races since 2013.

Though Bassett Jr. amassed a three-second lead on the half-mile track over the closing laps, he and his father remained antsy. Intense racing behind him threatened a late caution, and then there were the reminders of the mix-up from last season.

Bassett actually crossed under the checkered flag first at New Smyrna in 2016, emerging from a three-car fracas with Todd Gilliland and Spencer Davis. But race officials determined that an extra lap had been inadvertently run beyond the scheduled distance, handing the victory to Gilliland. There was no doubt Sunday night.

“I had a counter in my hand tonight,” Bassett Sr. said with a laugh. “We were definitely watching the flagstand, that’s for sure. It’s all good, though.”

For his son, the victory was a needed boost after a long dry spell. Bassett had two runner-up efforts sprinkled among his nine previous top-five finishes, including a third place at New Smyrna last year.

After leaving the Florida half-mile with trophy in hand, Bassett said the sense of rejuvenation was real.

“It’s been very, very tough on myself — I went from running good in Late Model Stocks and then coming to these things, it’s like punching myself in the heart,” Bassett Jr. said, adding that the family plans a full K&N East schedule in its rebuilding year. “To come back and have a good race car and lead laps tonight, it builds my confidence back to know that I can still do it.”

DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. — It wasn’t quite the Daytona 500 pole position — although for a while it looked like it might be — but Clint Bowyer‘s fourth-place qualifying effort Sunday afternoon on the Daytona International Speedway high banks was a huge confidence boost for him and for his Stewart-Haas Racing team.


Bowyer took over the No. 14 Mobil 1 Ford Fusion for retired great Tony Stewart this season and his first official outing in the car Sunday certainly was noteworthy. And assuring.


The 2012 Cup championship runner-up looked stout taking over driving duties for the three-time series champion Stewart — and held the lead spot on the timing pylon for a good portion of the qualifying session before Hendrick Motorsports teammates Chase Elliott and Dale Earnhardt Jr. topped the mark.


Even so, Bowyer was smiling and enthusiastic when qualifying closed.


"It’s a great effort, considering everything these guys have gone through all season long, switching manufacturers and everything that goes with that,’" Bowyer said of his SHR team. "It was right where they left off and we gained on it."


Bowyer, who was signed by the Stewart-Haas organization in 2015 to replace the retiring Stewart, drove for HScott Motorsports last year while "on deck" for the seat. And he suffered through the worst season of his career with not a single top-five finish.


The promising start in his first official outing for SHR was exactly the kind of beginning both Bowyer and his team could appreciate.


"It’s a nice first time out with him and more importantly, I think it’s a big progression for Stewart-Haas," crew chief Mike Bugarewicz said. "It says a lot about this company and how hard everybody has worked — our R&D group, everyone in the body shop, the aero engineers, everybody.


"Having two cars in the top 12 (also seventh place Kevin Harvick) we had a reasonable shot at it. We’re happy. This team has been through a lot the past two years and now meeting up with Clint, we’re excited and looking forward to working with him. I think we’re going to have a lot of fun this year.


"When the organization that’s been working so hard, sees speed in the car, that’s a good thing. And him climbing in for the first time … this gets him pumped up and everyone in the car excited and ready to go."


Bowyer has four top-10 finishes in the Daytona 500, including back-to-back fourth-place efforts in 2009-10. He says this restrictor-plate style of racing is something he said he looks forward to. This opportunity with SHR is something he’s ready to seize.


‘It’s Daytona," Bowyer said of the importance of his efforts.


"It feels good to be competitive again. I was down here last year and we were way off the pace. It was crushing because you know deep down you don’t even have a chance and when you’ve got a car like this — a hot rod like this and a team like this — I’ve got a chance.’’

The Daytona 500 is a unique event in many ways, including how the 40-car field is set for this year’s race (Sunday, Feb. 26, 2 p.m. ET, FOX, MRN, SiriusXM NASCAR Radio).

There are two days that carry the most significance in how the field is set. The first is Sunday, Feb. 19 when two rounds of single-car qualifying will take place starting at 3:10 p.m. ET (FOX). The second is Thursday, Feb. 23 when the Can-Am Duel races take place, starting at 7 p.m. ET (FS1).

Here are more details:

SINGLE-CAR QUALIFYING

Programming info for single-car qualifying
When: Sunday, Feb. 19
Where: Daytona International Speedway
TV: FOX
Radio: MRN, SiriusXM NASCAR Radio

What is the format?
This event will determine the front row (spots 1 and 2) for the Daytona 500. There will be two rounds of single-car qualifying, with the 12 fastest cars in Round 1 advancing to Round 2. There will be a 10-minute break between rounds, and cars will make their Round 2 run based on Round 1 times (slowest going first, fastest last).

The fastest time in Round 2 will be the Coors Light Pole Award winner for the Daytona 500. The second-fastest time in Round 2 will earn the other spot on the front row for the Daytona 500. The pole winner will start first in the first Can-Am Duel race on Thursday. The other front-row driver will start first in the second Can-Am Duel race.

The rest of the field will line up for Thursday’s Can-Am Duels based on qualifying time, with odd-numbered finishers lining up in the first Duel, and even-numbered finishers lining up for the second Duel.

CAN-AM DUELS

Programming info for the Can-Am Duels
When: Thursday, Feb. 23
Where: Daytona International Speedway

What is the format?
The Can-Am Duels will determine spots 3-38 in the Daytona 500 grid. With 36 Charter teams entered in the race, two of these spots will be filled by the top Open car in each Duel race. The qualifiers from the first Duel will line up on the inside row in the Daytona 500 depending upon their finish in Duel 1. The qualifiers from the second Duel will line up on the outside row for the Daytona 500 depending upon their result in Duel 2.

The remaining two spots on the Daytona 500 grid will be awarded to the top Open teams from Sunday’s qualifying that are still left (i.e. didn’t qualify through the Duels).

In review:
– Two spots (front row) determined by Sunday’s qualifying.
– Spots 3-38 determined by results of Duels races.
– Spots 39, 40 go to the top Open cars remaining.
– That’s a total of 40 cars for Sunday’s race (36 Charter cars, 4 Open cars).

DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. — When Brad Keselowski and Denny Hamlin collided in Turn 2 on the final lap of Sunday’s rain-delayed Advance Auto Parts Clash at Daytona International Speedway, Joey Logano was there to seize the moment.


Charging to the outside and grabbing the lead near the entry to the Superstretch at the 2.5-mile speedway, Logano took the checkered flag 1.121 seconds ahead of runner-up Kyle Busch, who beat third-place finisher Alex Bowman to the stripe by .018 seconds.


Danica Patrick dodged the Turn 2 melee to surge from 10th to fourth on the final lap to post her first top-five finish in any Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series race, though the result is not official because "The Clash" is an exhibition event with a limited field.


Kevin Harvick, driving a Ford for the first time at NASCAR’s highest level, came home fifth.


Daniel Suarez, in his first Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series start, finished eighth. 


Logano’s victory was the first in "The Clash" for a Ford driver since Dale Jarrett took the checkered flag in 2004.


Joe Gibbs Racing Toyotas settled into the first four spots after a restart on Lap 65, but Team Penske teammates Keselowski and Logano sped toward the front in the outside lane, successfully side-drafted and broke up the Camry armada.


The race was decided when Keselowski challenged defending winner Hamlin for the lead on the final lap. Keselowski, who came home sixth, powered his Ford to the bottom of Turn 2. Hamlin tried to protect his position, and the cars collided, Hamlin’s Toyota spinning wildly and Keselowski’s Ford losing momentum off the corner.


Logano pulled out to a 100-yard lead and maintained it as Busch and Bowman battled side-by-side behind him.


"That was the play," Logano said of the side-drafting strategy. "The Toyotas are so selfless, I guess is the way to look at it. They’re able to work together and think of one car winning, and they’re really good at that.


"We had to think that same way as Ford (drivers), and we Stewart-Haas and the Penske cars, we were able to get a good enough run to work together enough to break them up and make the passes, and then there at the end, it was kind of a mess.


"Everything was going really fast, and I was just in the right place at the right time."


Even though "The Clash" featured a mandatory caution at Lap 25, and even though the cars had been set up for racing under the lights, drivers were uniformly aggressive in the opening segment, often running three-wide in an attempt to gain track position.


On Lap 17, Kurt Busch fell victim to a handling problem with reigning Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series Jimmie Johnson‘s No. 48 Chevrolet. Johnson got loose in Turn 4 and spun into the right rear of Busch’s No. 41 Stewart-Haas Racing Ford, turning Busch hard into the outside wall.


"I was just minding my own business in the low groove and we got tagged in the right rear," Kurt Busch said after exiting the Infield Care Center. "It’s kind of a shame — all of the hard work and the effort everybody puts into the off-season — Doug Yates and his engines and everybody from Ford and everybody at Stewart-Haas, all of the effort put toward building a car and we didn’t even make it to the first pit stop, so it’s kind of a bummer." 


Johnson car survived that wreck, but the handling remained evil, and on Lap 49 he spun again off Turn 4 and clobbered the inside wall near the entrance to pit road. The wreck put Johnson out of the race, his sixth straight DNF in the season-opening exhibition event.


With 14 laps left, Martin Truex Jr. tried to fill a hole that wasn’t there and clipped the right front of Kyle Larson‘s No. 42 Chip Ganassi Racing Chevrolet. Truex spun in Turn 3, rocketed toward the outside wall and caught the left rear of Chris Buescher‘s No. 37 Chevrolet, which needed two trips to pit road to repair the damage.


That wreck set up the wild 11-lap run to the finish that saw the opportunistic Logano take advantage of the last-lap tangle between Keselowski and Hamlin.
