The Daytona Road Course race will have Chase Elliott start from pole position for Sunday, Feb. 21's O’Reilly Auto Parts 253.
Elliott won the Busch Pole Award largely owing to his four wins in a points-paying road course effort this past season.
He will have Daytona 500 winner Michael McDowell alongside him on the front row. Current points-leader Austin Dillon and Denny Hamlin will make up the second row in third and fourth for the Daytona Road Course race.
Actor Kevin James will be the Grand Marshal for Sunday's race.
There will be no practice or qualifying for the Daytona Road Course race owing to the COVID-19 restrictions in place.
The next qualifying session will be for the dirt-track race at Bristol Motor Speedway, scheduled for Mar. 28.

How was the Daytona Road Course starting lineup determined?
Since there was no qualification, the Daytona Road Course starting lineup was determined after competition officials took into consideration a formula based on four statistical categories:
25% of driver's finish position from the last race
25% of car owner's finish position from the last race
35% points ranking for team owners
15% consideration given to fastest lap since last race
Based on the above formula, the early Daytona 500 crash that trimmed the field will result in a few of the drivers starting from the rear of the field for the Daytona Road Course race.
