Today marks three days before NASCAR Cup Series drivers compete in the 67th running of the Great American Race. Drivers who have won the DAYTONA 500 three times represent the elite of the sport. The group of four three-time winners includes NASCAR Hall of Famers Bobby Allison (1978, 1982, 1988), Dale Jarrett (1993, 1996, 2000) and Jeff Gordon (1997, 1999, 2005) as well as current 23XI Racing driver Denny Hamlin (2016, 2019, 2020). Only two drivers have won NASCAR’s most prestigious race more than three times—Richard Petty with a record seven victories and Cale Yarborough with four.
Tune-in to the 2025 DAYTONA 500 on Sunday, February 16 at 2:30 p.m. ET on FOX, MRN and SiriusXM NASCAR Radio.
