- Dale Earnhardt Jr. survived the longest rain delay in Daytona 500 history and a spate of accidents to score a win at Daytona International Speedway and capture NASCAR's biggest race.
Second was Denny Hamlin, followed by Jeff Gordon and Brad Keselowski.
The race was rain delayed for more than 6 hours after heavy thunderstorms and a tornado warning hit the Central Florida area mid-afternoon.
Early on, things looked good.
Rookie Austin Dillon started from the pole in the No. 3 Richard Childress Racing Chevrolet, the first appearance for that car number in a NASCAR Sprint Cup race since the death of Dale Earnhardt here in 2001.

“I never think about him being old. I still think about him as being Junbug.”
The emotion in DW’s voice as it cracks makes it even better.
I legit teared up hearing DW say that.
I thought the same thing from DW saying what he said
Man I miss Dale Jr racing but here's the funny thing, he still got it.
dale was smiling down from heaven when he won it
Dale Jr actually shared a picture of him infront of his Dad's statue at Daytona saying "Dad is happy". I loved it
Sr would’ve loved this.
I AGREE
@@zachdoster1206 especially if Sr was to make a drag race with Jr. That would a story of the ages I guarantee you.
Sr was probably smiling down big time and saying look at that kid I got, doing something I NEVER did, win The Great American Race TWICE!
This was his best season, not focusing on stats, but just memories. What a year for Jr.
His best season was 2004 when he had 6 wins and almost won the title
He had more wins in 04 but he was more consistent in 14
Yep, that was the season that saved his career. If he would have won at Talladega in 2014 or 2015 in the Fall Race, he probably would win the Cup in either one of those seasons.
@@Shawn6751 I still think he won in 2015 but nascar screwed him
@@dawgsfan1196 He got screwed over at Dega.
That was a lovely and sweet moment from Darrel Waltrip at 6:55 Just seems like such a nice man.
Waltrip was involved in the Earnhardt Sr crash in 2001… so it makes sense.
The Pied Piper of Daytona thanks for the memories Bug
Mike Joy is the GOAT
How do two of you not like this? Lol, Jr. wins, Kyle crosses the finish line backwards, lol. Awesome stuff.
Michael Condelli yeah and I was at this race
They’re Kyle fans

Oh I get it, he was drafting Pink Floydd. The Wall...
5 years later and it's still a great moment!!!
Damn man, Dale Jr is one hell of a dude. Can’t help but like him
This was my only 500 I've gotten to go to and even though my dad was a Gordon fan and I'm a Jimmie fan we all love and respect Dale and Jr. I was so happy to watch him win this race.
DW is so proud lol
Still get chills
Kelly’s reaction always makes me tear up so much
You can heat how much the audience loves him. Pure tear jerker and goosebumps
power to dale earnhardt jr worked real hard for that win if he had 10 laps to go who knows what would have happend
3:30 the joy in Darrell Waltrip’s voice.
We were all ready! Awesome win!
t
11 Xs Fan favorite. Not just Jr. Humble Good ol boy.
Hearing DW choke up about Jr always being JuneBug gets me everytime I watch this
Such a great memory
One of the Last Great NASCAR moments . Makes me remember what a Great sport it once was
I remember this so well, I really miss jr
Not a super big Dale jr fan but this is definitely my favorite Daytona 500 finish
Mines as well, I had tears in my eyes when my dad woke me up and told me that Dale Jr won the 500.
Hearing these guys love on jr is everything
I used to LOVE watching NASCAR but I quit watching in 2008. wish I would of saw THIS win. Jr was my Favorite.
hiphopguru81 same
Branden the chase ruined it.. the cars have changed plus they change the rules every year.. i grew up a nascar guy and a huge jr fan but over the past 8 years I have watched less and less
@@scottwallace7834 The whole segment thing got me, I can't watch it after that and competition cautions to refuel cars. Like WTF!
RUclips OG Since 06' SAME LOL LIKE 2010 FOR ME😭😭
Oh that was a good race car one of my favorites
I remember having to go to bed before the race ended bc of the rain delay(had school the next day). Finding out the next morning junior won was bittersweet, upset because I had to miss such a valuable moment, yet ecstatic that he captured the win. Even though I couldnt see it live, every time I come back to this video I cant help but shed tears of joy. Junior and nascar were such a big part of my childhood and always will be.
It’s about to be year 2020 and I’m still watching this video it was the best day.
This was the best moment in nascar 2010s
I remember I was in 7th grade and I stayed up wayyyy late to watch this race. It was worth it
same here hahaha. Got a pretty happy phone call from my dad when this happened
Love Jr painting! Hell Yeah!
This is honestly my favorite race of all time! I get just as excited watching it right now as I did the night Ole Junebug won!!
I went to a NASCAR race as a kid. About a month after Dales fatal crash. Anyway I got to sign his trailer. Where ever it is. I can still point out my name I put it in a good spot
Dude. That's so dope.
LOVE DALE EARNHARDT JR. WITH ALL MY HEART AND ALWAYS WILL
Way to go it Jr!!! Awesome!!!
Ain’t nobody better then Earnhardt jr real sad that he retired and he’s better then the rest because he’s driving a Chevy
Say what you will about Junebug being overrated, but that SoB could drive the wheels off a car on a superspeedway, he was just as good as he dad was on superspeedways.
You have bumped your head to even consider Jr was as good as his Dad on super speedway's. Or mid to short track's for that matter. Jr went for over four years without winning a race.
@@lskiller1903 Yea and he also won 5 out of the 7 races at Talladega between fall 2001 and fall 2004, the 2 races he didn't win, he finished 2nd. That's something even Dale Sr. never did. Junior won 9 superspeedway races over 18 seasons to Senior's 13 superspeedway wins over 22 seasons. You also have to take into consideration that the era Junior raced in had much tougher competition. He was just as good on superspeedways, I never said anything about short tracks or speedways.
@Rocket Man You're talking out your ass. What is this "help" you speak of and where is the evidence to support it?
Real Slim I guess winning a Daytona 500 must mean it is rigged when you win it? Makes no sense. If that was the case Junior wouldve won every damn one he entered. People make 0 sense
@@HomeSlice_2424 Exactly man. If NASCAR was rigged, Junior would be an 8 time champion now because that's where the money is. Hell, they even fined him points in 2004 for cursing after he won at Talladega and that pretty much cost him the championship; if NASCAR was rigged in Junior's favor, that would have never happened.
dang i missed this😭
This was the best win i think, I almost cried when he won this race
Me as well
Dale Sr was out there. JR was drafting him
In the form of a black tape
I remember I was at that race
If Dale Jr stayed in NASCAR for 3 more years, we could see action-packed racing at Talladega and Daytona.
This and super bowl 52 and the 2008 World Series are my favorite sports moments
It would be this, 2001 Pepsi 400, 2022 National Championship Game, and 2021 World Series.
Im so happy he won this race he did it for his dad
I remember watching this race front of the tv stand and had my Pepsi can jumping up and down
I watched this in jail. Heard the last few laps on the radio! Lol
Dale Earnhardt Jr
I was actually at the race but bc of the rain delay I watched the rest on tv till the end
Earnhardt 🐐
Dale Jr. should have more super speedway wins. He had a real talent for the pack racing but the “Tandem” racing was more of a crapshoot. Even so he was always upfront at Daytona and Talladega and watching him work the draft was really impressive
Ol Big E taught his boy Little E to see the wind
First winner to race with a debris on the bumper.
Happy Birthday Junebug
Dale Sr slapped that tape on the grill of Jrs car with 3 to go .
2:41 Ricky Stenhouse in that 17 car to 3rd place. Um DW he's in 4th with that move. Lmao
Damn, it was the last time I was drunk.
🏁
That young man in the 88 was a wheelman.#AMEN
A 40 year old young man
Dale jr. Can tell his dad I did something you never did I won the Daytona 500 twice...
Possibly Last best Daytona 500 Ever Seen
🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁
His dad would be so proud
Military!#1
Dat 88 is pulling away!
Junior you going your number 88 yeah but she was still racing just a single you have been better off
i think carl edwards is celebrating
Funny how he won at the same place 10 years later
Good for jr, but really harvick wrecking McMurray and Kyle Busch?
Dale needs to return for one more race! 2021 Daytona 500 sha'll be his destiny!!!💯🇺🇸🍻
Cake tasting good! X
Thats My Boy #JUNBUG
Of course it was Kevin Harvick that got into the rear of Busch...
WHEN I WAS 13 YEARS OLD MY MOM AND DAD SAID I HAD TO PICK DAYTONA OR GALVISTON I PICKED DAYTONA
Dale wasn’t gonna be denied the checkered flag that night
Oh we got a wreck
What year was it that he was extremely close to winning but his gas ran out on the very last lap?
GOOD JOB JUNE BUG 🐛!!!!!!!
DW's brotherwon 2001 500 and after that he retired
Actually, Michael waltrip had his own company until 2014.
Santa Custodio Michael won two 500 one 01 and he won the race under a rain out in 2003 at Daytona
Your dad would be proud jr
Dale Jr whipped his ass
Hamlin won this year
he looks like a kid in there 😂😂
ANY old school NASCAR FANS LEFT???????
jr theat was sad
yeah won your 3rd Daytona 500
2nd*
2nd he won The 400 at daytona in 2001 then the 500 in 2004
The wreck that started right before he won made me heart stop because his father died on the last lap turn 4
Plus it was cause by Kevin Harvick who replaced Dale at RCR after his death
And Kyle had the M&Ms scheme...
I enjoy watching Harvick wreck lol
Fultonfalcons86 i enjoy watching kyle Busch wreck
Yeah it is a good thing when he does lol
@@beeftestie0539 I enjoy watching both of 'em wreck
@@dawgsfan1196 I like watching keselowski and Kyle Busch wreck haha
Who's here after I am athlete?
The good old days when you could talk about anything and nascar didn’t have bubba Wallace ruining the sport.
3:18 DW is so unamused 😂
JUNBUG
dal h
Eat your fruits! X
Most disappointing racecar driver in history. Only because his dad was so great and the expectation for him to be as close to great as he was.
he won.yet it look set up..just saying
Michael White Ye... with a possibility of destroying a $100.000 motor, which could result in a dangerous multi-car wreck. In that way you could say that 76, 2017, 2002, 1999 etc. All races could be set up...
You really cannot set-up or fix a auto-racing event
Fixing a race can be very dangerous...all NASCAR has to do to fix a race, is once “whoever they want to win” gets in 1st, tell the rest of the field, to slow it down; DO NOT PASS “HIM”...then everyone will just crash...so I don’t think you can fix a race...especially at Superspeedways
@@dimitrypittman143 2001 Pepsi400
Never won a championship
So ?
How many did you win? 2 Daytona 500 wins... In my opinion, just as big, if not bigger, then any season Championship.
power to dale earnhardt jr worked real hard for that win if he had 10 laps to go who knows what would have happend
