Projected NASCAR leaderboard for the 2020 Bluegreen Vacations Daytona Duels

The 2020 Bluegreen Vacations Daytona Duels begin on Thursday with the first duel at 7 p.m. ET and the second tentatively scheduled to start at 8:45 p.m. ET. Our proven projection model has simulated this event at Daytona International Speedway 10,000 times and came up with a surprising leaderboard.

Developed by daily Fantasy pro and SportsLine predictive data engineer Mike McClure, this proprietary NASCAR prediction computer model simulates every race 10,000 times, taking factors such as track history and recent results into account.

The model crushed its NASCAR picks last year, including calling 2019 Daytona 500 champion Denny Hamlin a top-four contender from the start. It also nailed eight of the top 10 drivers at the Pennzoil 400, which included putting winner Joey Logano in its projected top five, and then hit nine of the top 10 drivers at the Go Bowling at The Glen. Additionally, it called Martin Truex Jr. to win the Toyota/Save Mart 350 at Sonoma. Anybody who has followed it has seen HUGE returns. 

For the 2020 Bluegreen Vacations Daytona Duels, we can tell you the model is high on Alex Bowman to make a run to the front in the second Daytona Duel, even though he's one of six drivers in that field with 10-1 odds. And a massive shocker: Joey Logano, the standalone Vegas favorite in the first Daytona Duel at 4-1, falls short of the checkered flag!

The model is also targeting a whopping 10 OTHER drivers with NASCAR at Daytona odds of 10-1 or longer to make a serious run at winning it all in the two 2020 Bluegreen Vacations Daytona Duels. Anyone who backs these drivers could hit it BIG! You ABSOLUTELY need to see who they are before locking in any NASCAR picks.

So who wins the 2020 Bluegreen Vacations Duels? And which long shots stun NASCAR? ... Join SportsLine right now to see the full projected final leaderboard for NASCAR at Daytona, all from the model that has crushed its NASCAR picks!
