NASCAR Crash Course: Daytona disarray left Austin Dillon the last man standing

Austin Dillon won the NASCAR Cup Series Coke Zero Sugar 400 at Daytona International Speedway. The race was delayed due to bad weather. Dillon and Ryan Blaney were involved in several wrecks. Blaney finished 8th, three points behind Martin Truex Jr. in the standings.  

Just 16 cars finished the race. Rick Ware Racing placed both their cars inside the top 10. Landon Cassill ran fourth with Spire Motorsports. Ryan Blaney made it to the playoffs, but he's off the pace and has just one top-5 finish in his last seven starts. Brad Keselowski missed the postseason after a disastrous regular season.

Martin Truex Jr. was running up front in the first two stages and earning points. He was in contention for the win until a wreck damaged the right front of his Toyota. TrueX was forced to ride in back until late in race.

2021 Daytona 500 winner Michael McDowell was leading two laps when Tyler Reddick crashed into him. Reddik's teammate, Austin Dillon, was also involved in the crash.
