Reigning Cup Series champion Joey Logano begins the chase for his fourth career title in the Daytona 500 at 2:30 p.m. Sunday, kicking off an unprecedented year for the sport. Stock car racing’s highest circuit is set for a novel in-season tournament and will compete internationally, while the sanctioning body introduces several competition changes.

There will also be a new in-season tournament set to debut at Atlanta Motor Speedway on June 28 and conclude at Indianapolis Motor Speedway on July 27. Once seeding is determined in the three races leading into the tournament, drivers will go head-to-head in a bracket-style format each week until the $1 million prize is won.
