Ryan Blaney won an incident-filled race in overtime, while Tyler Reddick, who finished in fifth place, secured the final spot in the playoffs.

In addition to NASCAR, the track also hosts ARCA, AMA Superbike, USCC, SCCA, and Motocross races.

The track was built in 1959 by NASCAR founder William "Bill" France, Sr. to host racing held at the former Daytona Beach Road Course.

Lights were installed around the track in 1998 and today, it is the third-largest single lit outdoor sports facility.

The project, named "Daytona Rising", was completed in January 2016, at a cost of US $400 million, placing emphasis on improving fan experience with five expanded and redesigned fan entrances (called "injectors") as well as wider and more comfortable seating with more restrooms and concession stands.
