Last week saw a race that had almost everything and was one of the best races of the year, and probably the best Short track race in the Next Gen era as Austin Dillon won the right way this year. Now we head to the Regular Season finale, Daytona, where we set the NASCAR Cup Playoff field. Down below you will find different statistics for active drivers and Next Gen races of the NASCAR Cup series here at Daytona International Speedway ranging from Most Wins to Best Average Finishes by starting position in the Next Gen era. So read and enjoy these fun fact track stats!
In this post you will only find active and Next Gen stats, if you are looking for all-time stats check out my previous article All-Time Cup Track Stats: Daytona.
Active means any driver who started a race in the 2025 Cup Series season.
