Engine Rule for Daytona 500
Engine Rule for Daytona 500: the engine rule is a little
different at Daytona 500 [just like qualifying] then the other 35 races,
teams must run the same engine from Saturday's first practice session
through the Budweiser Duel 150 mile qualifying races. If a team makes a
change before the Duel, then it must start at the rear of the Duel 150
field. After the Duel 150 races, teams can make an engine change before
the Happy Hour practice session. After that, if an engine change is
made, the driver will start at the rear of the Daytona 500.
