Open Groups Battle for 2026 Daytona 500 Qualification
45 cars have applied for the 2026 Daytona 500, but only 41 spots are available, setting up a fierce battle among open groups.
The battle for a spot in the 2026 Daytona 500 is heating up. While 36 charter teams have secured their positions, nine open groups have also thrown their hats into the ring, bringing the total number of applicants to 45.
However, with only 41 spots available for NASCAR's biggest event, the competition among open groups is expected to be intense. Some teams may lose their spot based on time trial results.
