NASCAR: Daytona 500 Wagering PreviewThe 2006 Nextel Cup Series season begins in earnest on Sunday when the drivers take to the track in the Daytona 500. Jeff Burton will start from the pole on Sunday, having earned that position with a strong showing during last weekend's qualifying sessions. Jeff Gordon, the defending Daytona 500 champion, will start from the second spot on the grid. All other starting positions for the race will be determined at the Gatorade Duel, a pair of 150-mile races which take place on Thursday night (weather permitting). The annual Budweiser Shootout also took place at Daytona on the weekend, with Denny Hamlin the surprise winner of the event. Dale Earnhardt Jr. finished second on the day, with Tony Stewart, Scott Riggs, and Jimmie Johnson rounding out the Shootout's top five. Matt Kenseth, Mark Martin, Jamie McMurray, Joe Nemechek, and Dale Jarrett made up the rest of the race's top 10. Although Stewart fell short in the Shootout, he won the last race to be held at Daytona International Speedway. That was the 2005 edition of the Pepsi 400, which was just one of Stewart's five victories en route to the 2005 drivers championship. Stewart finished 35 points ahead of both Greg Biffle and Carl Edwards in last year's Chase for the Nextel Cup standings. Martin and Johnson finished fourth and fifth in 2005. Gordon raced to the win from the No. 15 position on the grid in last year's Daytona 500. That victory earned him $1,497,150, and a temporary place atop the driver standings. Overall, Gordon has picked up an impressive six career wins at Daytona International Speedway, the most among active Nextel Cup drivers. Kurt Busch finished second in the Daytona 500 last year, followed by Earnhardt Jr., Riggs, and Johnson. Martin, Stewart, Sterling Marlin, Kevin Lepage, and Rusty Wallace also picked up top-10 finishes. Burton started from the sixth spot in 2005, and ended up way back in 29th place. Last year's pole sitter, Jarrett, wound up in 15th place. Jarrett, however, has had success at Daytona in the past, as he's raced to victory four times in his career at the Florida track. Michael Waltrip (three), Marlin (three), and Earnhardt Jr. (two) have also earned multiple wins at Daytona, while Biffle won the 2003 Pepsi 400, and Burton won the 2000 Pepsi 400.
