William Byron 2024 Axalta / Daytona 500 Race Win 1:24 Color Chrome Nascar Diecast

Forty years to the day after car owner Rick Hendrick’s team ran its first race, Byron put himself in position for the 2024 season-opening NASCAR Cup Series® victory late in the going. Byron avoided a late-race crash to take the lead with just four laps remaining and kept his No. 24 Axalta Chevrolet Camaro ahead of a last-lap crash to score his first DAYTONA 500® victory and the 11th overall win of his NASCAR Cup Series® career. It was also a record-tying ninth DAYTONA 500® win for the Hendrick Motorsports organization.
