It’s here folks! The Daytona 500 and start to the NASCAR season is less than a week away. However, this year the Daytona 500 winner will not clinch their Playoff spot as the Win and In is no more, so the focus will be winning the Great American Race which is refreshing. 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.
