Chase Elliott to start on pole for Daytona road course Cup race

Chase Elliott will start on the pole for Sunday’s race at the Daytona International Speedway road course. It is the first time in history the series has stayed at Daytona after the 500 to race the following weekend.

Elliott will be joined on the front row by Daytona 500 winner Michael McDowell. Current points leader Austin Dillon will start third, Denny Hamlin fourth, and Kevin Harvick fifth.

The Clash at Daytona was run last Tuesday night on the Daytona Road Course.

The Daytona road course starting lineup is set by using a formula based on four statistical categories: owner points position, owner final race position, and the finish and fastest lap from the most recently completed race.

Performance Metrics Qualifying is a formula based on the previous race. The formula is 15% of a fastest lap time position, 25% of the driver’s final race finish position, 25% of the owner’s final race position and 35% of the owner points position. Any ties will be broken by the rule book.
