Falling to Rear at Daytona NASCAR announced the No. 19 Joe Gibbs Racing Toyota of Truex Jr. will drop to the rear of the field for Sunday's Daytona 500 due to a radiator/oil cooler change. Impact Considering that Truex had only qualified 26th on the grid, this isn't too bad of a penalty. The team needed to make the change of components, so it was an easy decision. Truex will fall to the rear of the Daytona 500 field Sunday for the green flag. He will join seven other drivers who are also falling to the rear for various reasons. Many of which are the result of going into backup cars after damage incurred in Thursday night's Duel races.
