Rate The Race: 2017 Daytona 500

8

Deducted points for the cautions and a lackluster final 10 laps. Overall was a good race and think the segments are a nice fit for restrictor plate races.
 
Solid 8. The yellow fever/red flag sucked but I enjoyed the last 50 or so laps quite a bit
 
5 for the first 180 laps

9.5 for the last 20
 
10. Segments were good racing, got little crazy after but that's Daytona. Once everything settled down the racing was good and had a great finish.
 
I'm debating between an 8 and a 9. Hmmm...

I'll go with an 8 since the cars were single file towards the end. Otherwise, an exciting race.

EDIT: Not a 10 because of too many cautions/wrecks.
 
8 for me. Great race and finish. Segments are a great. I'm actually liking these new rules.
 
8 - I am exhausted. Weeks worth of the Yellow fever.
