Five big NASCAR changes to look out for in 2024
The 2024 NASCAR Cup season is off to an exciting start, with Joey Logano claiming pole position for the Daytona 500 season opener after a Ford front-row lockout in qualifying. The new Mustang has shown its strength by securing the front row with Logano and McDowell at the helm. The twin 150-mile qualifying races on Thursday set the rest of the grid, with Jimmie Johnson among the drivers securing slots for NASCAR’s prestigious event. The 2024 season brings new drivers, venues, and revamped entries from Toyota and Ford, with their updated Camry and Mustang race cars making their debut. Shane van Gisbergen, a Supercars legend, is set to make his full-time NASCAR switch after an impressive win at the Chicago Street Race last year for Trackhouse Racing. Excitement is building as teams adapt to the new car models and fans eagerly anticipate the action-packed races ahead.
