“Second is the worst, man. You're so close," Logano, who won the 2015 race said."Congratulations to Ricky. There's nothing like winning the Daytona 500. That's why it stings so much finishing second Stenhouse, 35, also gave single-car team JTG Daugherty Racing its biggest moment in racing. Tad Geschickter and his wife Jodi — the JTG in the name — joined with former NBA All-Star center Brad Daugherty to form the team in 2009, and prior to Sunday, the team had tasted victory just once — at Watkins Glen in 2014 with driver AJ Allmendinger.

Aric Almirola, Denny Hamlin, Ryan Blaney, Bubba Wallace, Travis Pastrana were also invovled in the incident that helped seal the deal for Stenhouse at Daytona.In the first overtime, Austin Dillon, the 2018 Daytona 500 winner, spun out in his No. 3 Chevrolet when the front of the inside line got stacked up behind him.
