After a disappointing end to a promising Daytona 500 race last year, Ricky Stenhouse Jr and JTG Daugherty Racing bounced back in a big way. Fresh off signing a new contract extension, and being reunited with veteran crew chief Mike Kelley, Stenhouse and the team experienced immortality today by winning the 65th edition of the Great American Race.

Stenhouse and Joey Logano were battling on the final lap when the caution flag came out. NASCAR officials reviewed the scoring and determined that the driver of the No. 47 Chevrolet was the winner of the race. It is the first Daytona 500 win by a single-car team since the Wood Brothers went to victory lane in 2011 with Trevor Bayne.

The majority of the race was relatively calm, with a few incidents taking out contenders like Chase Elliott, Tyler Reddick, and Erik Jones. Another late-race caution took out nearly a dozen cars, which included more big names like Kevin Harvick, Martin Truex Jr, and Chase Briscoe.

Kyle Busch was three laps away from finally capturing the elusive Daytona 500 victory. He was leading the race when a spin by Daniel Suarez brought out the yellow flag and set up the overtime finish. Ironically, it was Suarez that crashed Busch from the lead in the Duel race earlier in the week.

The final caution flag during the white flag eliminated several contenders, who never had an opportunity to make their move. Time ran out, and this time, the luck was finally on Ricky's side. Another chapter in the Daytona 500 book has been written, and the rest of the field will now have to wait 365 days for another shot at glory.

The 212 laps and 530 miles made this the longest Daytona 500 in history. There were 53 lead changes among 21 drivers and eight total cautions in the event. Stenhouse ended his 199-race winless drought, and this is the first Cup win for JTG Daugherty since 2014 when AJ Allmendinger took them to victory lane at Watkins Glen.
