2016 Can-Am Duels

[11] The standard track at Daytona International Speedway is a four-turn superspeedway that is 2.5 miles (4.0 km) long.

"[16] After qualifying seventh and being all but guaranteed into the Daytona 500 based on speed, Ryan Blaney said that he "wasn't really too nervous going into today.

I'm really thankful and blessed to be here.”[18] Martin Truex Jr. was unable to post a time over a roof flap issue.

[19] The Stewart Haas Racing cars of Kevin Harvick and Brian Vickers had their times disqualified after their track bars failed inspection.

[21] Kyle Larson and Michael Waltrip will start from the rear of the field in their respective Duel races after being involved in a four-car crash in turn 1.

[23] Under clear night Florida skies, Chase Elliott led the field to the green flag at 7:21 p.m.

Brad Keselowski made a few attempts to pass him, but Earnhardt continued to control the track to the point he settled back behind.

A number of cars hit pit road to kick off a cycle of green flag stops on lap 40.

[24] McDowell raced his way in as the fastest of the non-charter cars while Cole Whitt and Josh Wise did not qualify.

Unlike the first Duel race, the bottom line disappeared and the field formed a single-file train by the fifth lap.

With two laps to go, Casey Mears ran out of gas, nearly caused a wreck amongst the leaders and broke up the single-file train.

The final lap saw a multi-car wreck in turn 1 that ended the race and gave the win to Busch.
