DAYTONA BEACH — When the green flag drops for Sunday’s Daytona 500, NASCAR fans will see a familiar sight: The No. 88 Chevrolet leading the 40-car field into the first turn. The only difference is the only one that matters to a sizable chunk of the sport’s fan base. Dale Earnhardt Jr. won’t be behind the wheel. That driver will be Alex Bowman, who didn’t even attend the Great American Race last year, much less race in it. Although Bowman’s replacing the face of his sport, the 24-year-old Arizona native is relatively anonymous.

Some around Daytona International Speedway have even mistakenly pegged the veteran of 81 NASCAR Cup Series races as a rookie. Those already moving to a back-up car are Brad Keselowski, Austin Dillon, Aric Almirola, William Byron, Matt DiBenedetto, Kyle Larson, Jimmie Johnson and David Gilliland. The Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series still has practices slated for Friday and Saturday before the start of Sunday’s 500. Four of the teams were also forced to go to back-up engines – Keselowski, Almirola, DiBenedetto and Johnson – but at the series director’s discretion they will not have to start the next event from the rear of the field.

In addition, seven Cup teams will serve 15 minute practice penalties Friday due to being late to inspection. The penalty will be assessed at the end of the session (in other words their practice will be cut short by 15 minutes). Those drivers: Danica Patrick, Gray Gaulding, Michael McDowell, David Ragan, A.J. Allmendinger, Brendan Gaughan and Mark Thompson.
