Casey Mears, driving the No. 66 Garage 66 car, was a lap down with four laps remaining in the NASCAR Daytona Duel No. 1 but secured a spot in the Daytona 500 after a late caution allowed him to regain his lap. Following a multi-car crash involving Corey Lajoie on the final lap, Mears emerged as the top open car finisher. Despite a collision with Daniel Suarez, he managed to keep his car straight. The Garage 66 team now faces repairs or a backup car ahead of the race.
