Kyle Larson, Shane van Gisbergen, others crash in NASCAR Daytona Duels' last lap
A Daytona Duel big one ended the second duels race Thursday. It involved aNASCAR Cup Series champion and a highly touted rookie. Coming to the checkered flag in the second qualifying race, rookie Shane van Gisbergen tried to make a move to the outside and was not clear of Christopher Bell. After hitting Bell's bumper, van Gisbergen slammed into the outside retaining wall and cut down into the field, collecting Anthony Alfredo, Cole Custer, Riley Herbst, Kyle Larson, BJ McLeod and Cody Ware. Cars went sliding and spinning all over the tri-oval at Daytona International Speedway, with Larson sliding through the infield grass and other cars sliding over the finish line. Austin Cindric earned the victory in the duel race after leading Erik Jones as the caution came out feet before the finish line. The caution light froze the field and was used to determine the winner. Corey LaJoie earned the final transfer spot and qualified for the Daytona 500. LaJoie will start 12th in Sunday's race.

Daytona Duels: What to know and how to watch NASCAR Daytona 500 event
Hear this story The Daytona 500 is nearly here, with Thursday's Daytona Duels determining virtually the entire starting grid order for the first event of the 2025 NASCAR season. The Duel at Daytona will feature two races in one night, with the lineups determined by the results of Wednesday night's Daytona 500 pole qualifying. Chase Briscoe claimed pole position for Sunday's Daytona 500 after posting the top time in qualifying and will also start on the pole for Duel at Daytona No. 1. Austin Cindric, who qualified second and locked himself into the front row of the 67th annual Daytona 500, will start on the pole for Duel at Daytona No. 2. But every other position in the Daytona 500 starting lineup is up for grabs thanks to the unique format deployed for the Daytona 500. And that's where the Duel races come into play. Racers will contest two 60-lap, 150-mile events Thursday night, with the starting order for Sunday only one element in the equation. Top finishers in both Daytona Duels receive NASCAR Cup Series regular season points, and no contender wants to start the season off on the wrong foot. Here's what to know about The Duel at Daytona, including how to watch and how the format works: Daytona Speedweeks:What to know about events leading up to Daytona 500 Daytona 500 weather forecast:Will rain alter NASCAR season opener again in 2025?

Qualifying started Wednesday in typical fashion: every driver will get to post one timed lap in the first round, and the top 10 advance to a second round. The winner in that round claims pole position, while the runner-up gets a front-row place on the Daytona 500 grid as well. From there though, we diverge from normal procedure, and that's where The Duel at Daytona comes in. Despite the official name, there are actually two races on Thursday: odd-numbered finishers from qualifying will race in Duel 1, while even-numbered finishers go into Duel 2. Each Duel is a 60-lap, 150-mile race at Daytona International Speedway, and the finishing order sorts out every row of the grid behind the top two drivers from qualifying. Racers from Duel 1 will be placed on the inside lane in order of finish, with the winner behind the driver in pole position and so on. Duel 2's drivers will be placed in the outside lane, again in order of finish. What are the starting lineups for the Daytona Duel races?
