Where is NASCAR driver Martin Truex Jr. starting in the 2025 Daytona 500?
The Daytona 500 is the biggest race on the NASCAR schedule, and it also begins the season every year and attracts drivers who don't race full time in NASCAR, including Jimmie Johnson, Martin Truex Jr. and Hélio Castroneves this year.
Drivers would do just about anything to win this coveted checkered flag and put themselves in NASCAR's history books forever, but so much goes into winning the race. Ending the Daytona 500 in Victory Lane requires more than a fast car: Teams need perfect race strategies executed perfectly, along with fast pit stop. And, of course, a little bit of luck.

While there are Daytona 500 favorites, all these factors also mean anyone can win at Daytona International Speedway, regardless of the starting lineup. But starting position counts for something too.
So where is Martin Truex Jr. starting in the 2025 Daytona 500?
The 2017 NASCAR Cup Series champion retired from full-time racing at the end of the 2024 season, but he's back for the Daytona 500. The No. 56 TRICON Garage Toyota driver will start the Daytona 500 from the 39th position in row 20.
The 2025 Daytona 500 is set for Sunday, February 16 at 1:30 p.m. ET on Fox. The race was originally scheduled for 2:30 p.m. ET but was moved up because of weather.
