Several drivers, including Joey Logano and Ryan Blaney, were knocked out of the Daytona 500 on Monday at Daytona International Speedway following a huge crash on Lap 192 of 200.
The race was wide open and several cars were chasing Ross Chastain, who was running first. Two cars behind him was Alex Bowman, who appeared to nudge the No. 24 of William Byron. Byron started to swerve and hit the No. 6 of Brad Keselowski. Keselowski then bumped the No. 22 of Joey Logano. A whole bunch of cars were caught up in the crash as the red flag came out.
