Wednesday 18/2: Budweiser Duel Practice 1 & 2
The most surprising event at this practice was a heavy crash for #10 Danica Patrick just after 1 practice lap. It was #11 Danny Hamlin that accidently made contact with Danica. #10 car hit the outside wall and collected #26 Jeb Burton and #46 Michael Annett. All but Hamlin needed to unload the teams backup car.
Looking at below practice stats and I think #7 Alex Bowman, #62 Brian Scott and #29 Justin Marks all impressed at the 2nd practice run. In the first practice run #6 Trevor Bayne looks fast. #30 Ron Hornaday Jr. and #32 Bobby Labonte will have a hard time in the Duels -will they make it to Daytona 500 race?
