DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. – With persistent rain showers continuing to dampen Daytona Int’l Speedway, NASCAR officials have chosen to cancel Friday’s Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series qualifying session.
As a result, reigning series champion and current championship leader Joey Logano will lead the field to the green flag during Saturday’s Coke Zero Sugar 400 at Daytona Int’l Speedway.
The field was set by the rulebook, which dictates the field be set by owner points. Logano’s No. 22 Team Penske Ford currently leads the owner point standings. He’ll be joined on the front row by Joe Gibbs Racing’s Kyle Busch.
Brad Keselowski, Kevin Harvick and Martin Truex Jr. will start third through fifth, respectively.
William Byron is scheduled to start 12th, but will fall to the rear of the field after switching to a backup car following Thursday’s practice incident with Keselowski.
The field will be officially set for Saturday’s race following pre-race inspection Friday afternoon.
