Wins Daytona 500 McDowell won the Daytona 500 at Daytona International Speedway Sunday night.

Impact Shortly after starting, the race would encounter a huge 16-car pileup and then nearly a 6-hour delay due to weather. When action resumed Denny Hamlin would dominate most of the event. McDowell would be a Top-10 driver for much of the second-half of the race. On the final lap Brad Keselowski would make a pass for the lead with McDowell pushing them both past Joey Logano. However, Keselowski and Logano would make contact and both would spin and crash. The driver of the No. 34 Ford would be in front when the caution came out and would win the Daytona 500. It was his first-career Cup Series victory.
