Ragan, Alfredo lock themselves into the 2024 Daytona 500
Anthony Alfredo and David Ragan have secure spots in the 66th Daytona 500, with Alfredo’s impressive time in the No. 62 Chevrolet Camaro earning praise. Alfredo expressed gratitude for the opportunity and highlighted the challenges of competing against a strong field of drivers. Ragan’s solid performance in the Ford Mustang secured his 17th start in the Daytona 500. Jimmie Johnson’s qualifying time may play a crucial role after the Duel races, with Duel #1 featuring Alfredo, Johnson, and J.J. Yeley, and Duel #2 featuring Ragan, B.J. McLeod, and Kaz Grala. Grala and Yeley must race into the event, while McLeod could rely on his time if Alfredo and Ragan perform well in their Duels. Unfortunately, Grala faced mechanical issues during qualifying, hindering his opportunity to secure a spot in the race.
