Because he's the pole sitter he'll go to the back twice, once in the duel and then on Sunday. Truex and the like will go to the back for the duel but then be able to improve their position by running well in the duel. Even if Dale Jr wins the duel, h'll have to start in the back again. Feel free to correct me if I am wrong.

Jimmie Johnson is in Duel 1 so you still have a chance at being right

Jeff and Jr are the only cars that have actually qualified for the 500 therefore they were the only ones who would have to start at the back Sunday if they wrecked yesterday. Everyone else going to the back today because of engine changes and backup cars can keep their starting position for Sunday provided they don't wreck today or lose a motor Tomorrow or Saturday. Now if someone wrecks in the 150's today, they'll start at the back on Sunday and each of them would start behind Jr back there.

does it really matter, really, its Daytona, and a repaved Daytona, Jr could be in the top 10 by lap 10. some people worry way too much over this stuff

Kurt Busch won the 1st Duel, so he'll be the car moving up to the inside front position at the start. From the broadcast it sounds like a lot of cars won't be going on the track for practice tomorrow (to avoid tearing them up).

It seemed to me that the Hendrick cars all had cooling issues or at least they couldn't stay hooked up as long as the others.

They aren't promoting future EV. They are promoting Lancia. As long as the car looks like what you are selling, no one cares how it moves.
