Runner-up in Duel 1 Bell finished second in the Bluegreen Vacations Duel 1 at Daytona International Speedway Thursday night. Impact In the closing laps things would go from calm and single-file at the front to frantic. It would start with Bubba Wallace jumping out of line and heading to the high line, soon after Bell would join him. The bold move didn't work out so well for Wallace, but Bell would stick it among all the Fords at the front and challenge for the win. Joey Logano would block from the lead on the last lap to keep Bell behind him, so he would have to settle for the impressive runner-up finish. The Joe Gibbs Racing youngster will start fifth on the grid Sunday in the Daytona 500.
