NASCAR Results Today: Denny Hamlin and Kyle Larson PENALIZED as race ends with major DRAMA

After two thrilling duels at the Daytona 500, Bubba Wallace and Austin Cindric were the Cup Series stars to emerge victorious after some chaotic racing.

With the front row for Sunday’s race locked out by Chase Briscoe and Cindric in qualifying on Wednesday night, the duels determine how the rest of the field will look for the 67th running of the Great American Race.

And, starting on the second row it will be Wallace and Erik Jones after Wallace's win tonight, and Jones finishing the second duel behind Cindric.

In Duel 1, having started in 15th position, Wallace was able to work with team-mate Tyler Reddick to rise through the field, avoiding several wrecks that happened during the 60 laps of action. The team co-owned by Michael Jordan and Denny Hamlin are celebrating their second consecutive duel one victory after Reddick was the winner of the same race during the 2024 Daytona 500 race week.

Behind Wallace, William Byron, Ty Dillon, Ross Chastain and Reddick himself rounded out the top five in the first duel.

Just moments after Duel 1 was complete, the remaining stars hit the track, and Cindric proved to be the class of the field, although only just.

In a hugely dramatic finish, it was only a late wreck and the throwing of a late caution as the drivers raced to the line that saw Cindric emerge victorious, with Jones having just been the man to take the checkered flag first.

Elsewhere, earlier in Duel 2, Denny Hamlin and Kyle Larson had been running well and were in contention to potentially win the race. However, both were caught speeding in pit road and therefore subject to a speeding penalty, halting their progress. They did recover somewhat with the late wreck, but both now face a difficult task on Sunday.

With that said, let's take a look at the race results in full.
