CHARLOTTE, N.C. — “Anything can happen at Daytona.”
If you’ve been following the chaotic NASCAR Cup Series regular season at all these past few weeks, you’ve probably heard the above sentiment before. Drivers have said it. Analysts have, too.
Ryan Blaney, who is third in points but hasn’t yet secured a win and thus his playoff position remains up in the air, even addressed it head-on after his finish at Watkins Glen last weekend. He was asked by Fox Sports’ Bob Pockrass if he thought he controlled his own destiny heading into the final race of the regular season, and he responded resolutely, “Not at Daytona, no.”
