Preece Breaks Through at Daytona

Ryan Preece didn't hear the end-of-stage bell at Daytona, sliding off track while leading the first stage but still making a significant points comeback.

Preece was leading the first stage with a chance to earn 10 valuable points when he slid across the grass, allowing Shane Van Gisbergen to win the segment instead. Despite the setback, Preece stayed in the gas and finished eighth, making a remarkable swing from a 31-point deficit to a 38-point lead with two quarters remaining.

The No. 60 driver's aggressive approach at the stage end proved costly in the immediate segment but beneficial in the larger points battle, showing his determination in the Daytona race. milkshakeslot.com
