Christopher Bell is the maker's only representative starting inside the top 10. Toyota might be the manufacturer facing the most questions on Sunday. The pair of Duels wins for Ford make them an instant favorite for Sunday's race, though Chevrolet also has shown the speed to compete for the victory, too. Defending series champion Joey Logano used his Team Penske Ford power to muscle his way to the win in Thursday's first qualifying duel while Aric Almirola avoided trouble to win the second. He'll be joined at the front by teammate Kyle Larson who lines up second. Alex Bowman made headlines for capturing the top starting spot in single-car qualifying, which is the sixth consecutive time he will start this race on the front row. The stage has been set for the biggest race in the NASCAR Cup Series, the Daytona 500, and the official start to the 2023 season.
