2024 Daytona 500 starting lineup: Joey Logano starts season on pole

A new NASCAR Cup Series season will begin on Monday afternoon with the sport’s biggest race: the Daytona 500.

Although the weather forecast could wreak havoc on festivities at Daytona International Speedway, the green flag is scheduled to fly at 4:30 p.m. ET on Fox.

Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson will give the command to start engines, and DJ Khaled will wave the green flag.

Team Penske’s Joey Logano won the pole position in qualifying, and will be joined on the front row by former Daytona 500 winner Michael McDowell.

Here’s the full lineup of 40 drivers for Sunday’s race. Follow along with Motorsports Wire for full coverage of NASCAR’s opening weekend.
