The Daytona International Speedway will host the penultimate race of the NASCAR Cup Series regular season on Saturday.
Tyler Reddick, the current points leader, enters the Coke Zero Sugar 400 on a winning streak after finishing in the top three three times in a row and in the top six seven times in a row.
However, Daytona presents a unique challenge for Reddick and he has never won at the legendary track. Last year, Chris Buescher took the win in a thrilling overtime finish. Buescher, who currently sits 12th in the standings, will be keen to repeat his heroics and take a big step toward the playoffs.
Here’s everything you need to know about the Daytona race, including TV and streaming options for the race.
