The official kick-off of the 76th season of the NASCAR Cup Series is scheduled to get underway this week with the iconic Daytona 500 at Daytona International Speedway. The Daytona 500 will be the first race of the 2024 Cup season and will be held on Sunday, February 18.

The event will begin at 2:30 pm ET and FOX Sports will broadcast the entire racing activities of the Daytona 500 in the United States beginning Wednesday.

The 66th annual Daytona 500 will be contested over 200 laps on the 2.5-mile-long tri-oval superspeedway. The track features 31 degrees of banking at all four turns, with 18 degrees on the front stretch, the location of the finish line, and 2 degrees on the backstretch.

"The Great American Race" is made up of 42 entries for 40 spots. Out of 42 cars, 36 entries belong to teams with charters that have been confirmed for the main event. The other six entries are for those without a charter (open cars).

The six non-chartered entries include Kaz Grala (Front Row Motorsports’ #36), David Ragan (RFK Racing’s #60), Anthony Alfredo (Beard Motorsports’ #62), BJ McLeod (Live Fast Motorsports’ #78), and Jimmie Johnson (Legacy Motor Club’s #84). The NY Racing Team is on the list but a driver for the #44 entry is yet to be announced.

These six drivers will be vying for those final four open spots through the single-car qualifying session and the Bluegreen Vacations Duels.

JTG Daugherty driver Ricky Stenhouse Jr. won the Daytona 500 in 2023 and will be looking to win back-to-back titles.
