Thanks NASCAR for putting up the full race for us oversea's fan's!!
yup
And for us that got to go to bed early 😂
And for those that dont have the channel to watch

My thoughts exactly
5 yr old me: Plays with hot wheels Mom: Aww that's cute My Mind:
True
Yeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah
Yeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah
Hot wheels most definitely was the starting of me being a car guy, just out of diapers
The hotwheels addiction never goes away. It just grows. we’re all here watching this with many of us having a specific car we treasure.
Spoilers: They're right there, on the back of the cars
Lmao 🤣
Spoilers No the COTs have wings
there cot wings smacking your cat off your window
Them giant *** spoilers
As Dale Jr once said: *Giant ass spoilers*
Anyone else thinks its badass that Cope is 62 and still racing? That man really can claim he has seen it all, alongside Morgan Shepherd, probably
If you call what Derrick Cope does racing he got lucky to win the Daytona 500 and pretty much nothing else and this year's 500 was a one race deal and how did that work out
@@stevenbirchall8554 Racing is racing, regardless of conditions or age
Cope yes and seen the 78 97 ea of thunderbird and the Elliott duo ernie badges engine builder super flow heads Power the sound and furious blast of sound that assaulted your body on a pull or floating through a turn it was awesome the days of artistic interpretation of the rules
@@stevenbirchall8554 He's achieved a hell of a lot more than you that's for sure. At least people are talking about that 62 year old "lucky" driver. The only people talking about you are your parents and how they should've used birth control.
@@JSchaffer214 calm down you’ll be charged with murder😂💀
It’s a shame that the wreck happened in fourteen laps in. It would have been a hell of a Daytona 500 because the beginning was action packed until that lap
That’s why Denny Hamlin bailed. He saw the storm brewing.
was wolltest du damit sagen?
Saw it happen on TV. Erik Jones would've been able to continue if Kurt hadn't severely damaged the nose.
why in the green hell did you spoil it for me…. sadness ensues me.
@@emmakaiser1611 watch at lap 14
I love that even after all these years NASCAR and the fans still hold up 3 fingers on Lap 3 to honor Dale
Same, just thinking about his death makes me tear up. So tragic
@@frosty4059 please don't be a sugar. remember that he was mostly responsible of his crash. seat belt at the wrong placeand loose. and it failed on him. that crash by itself wasn't a killer. what killed him is himself.
@@jiboo6850 what are you talking about.... 190mph out of the straight, right into a wall. Even today that would be a mother of a crash. BUT had they had the high back seats and the HANS device he probably would have survived. His seatbelt did not break.
@@scottcol23 you clearly don't know what you're talking about. so i'll leave it there. nothing to do for you.
it was just a racing accident that happened to kill him. at least he died doing what he loved.
It’s pretty special that they honor Dale Earnhardt on lap 3 every year. And what’s also special is that Kevin Harvick led that lap. I got tears 😭
Not every year. They did after 10 years and after 20 years. So 2011 and 2020 I believe
@@crimson_insel nah they do that every year at the 500, I've been there and they always announce it too
@@crimson_insel as someone who has been there not during those years, I can confirm they always do it
@@joshuaboyko9615 ok
What’s Harvick got to do with the Earnhardt’s
Hol up- There's a 62 year old racing in the top tier of NASCAR? Now that is the definition of murica right there
Who? Idk the drivers very well since Gordon retired and these drivers' faces all look like they're in their 20's or 30's. They age like fine wine 🍷 lmao
@@Thunderalpacka223 Derrike Cope
It wasn't Morgan Shepard, Norm Benning, or Hershel McGriff. They all raced in their late 60's and 70s.
@@Thunderalpacka223 lmao
He actually won the daytona 500 in 1990, he wanted to come back for one final race before he retired from nascar
Fun fact: Derrike Cope and Michael McDowell have more Daytona 500 wins a piece than Kyle Busch.
Lmao so true 🤣🤣🤣
LMAO still the greatest fact known to man.
But has more championships then both combined.
@@OriginalKKid it went over your head
Anyone notice how Derrike Cope crashed the same way and in the same turn as Earnhardt did in the 1990 race
Just a suggestion, but maybe don’t include info about the race winner in the titles of these replays. Some of us can’t watch the race live and would appreciate not having any spoilers in the titles
They don't give a S**T if we hadn't been able to watch the race live, they look at that as being are fault, even when you can't watch live in your own country as they don't show nascar racing live and you must wait till it's put on here to be able to watch it.
@Danni Wolfe rrrrrrrr haha
they wont listen to us
i just came back because theres usually a last lap crash and i missed it.
just wait til you're old and look up the races with your glasses off. then put em back on when you're fullscreen.
The red flag was longer than the race itself. 🤔

god I'm happy another Dale SR probably won't happen again
Brad Keselowski's hit on the wall was pretty much the same as Earnhardt's such a shame we didn't have the safety all those years ago. Cole Custer's block right or wrong tactics he lost everything.

So so cool that you post these! Great to go back and watch, and for people who wouldn’t be able to watch it other wise. NASCAR is literally the greatest!
Kind interesting at the beginning of the last 3 decades the Daytona 500 win was their first win as well. Michael Waltrip in 2001 Trevor Bayne in 2011 and Michael McDowell in 2021.
As much as I like the Highlights, you just can’t beat the watching the whole race.
Cope who won 2 races ever, winner of the Daytona 500 against Earnhardt, and racing at 62, he’ll go down in history for weird reasons
that drone camera makes the victory burns much better
Thank you so much for posting the full race replays on KZhead. It is definitely the best part of my day when I get to watch current full replays for free. Please continue
From a german perspective NASCAR is like: 40 laps of crashes, 160 laps of wowowowowowowooosh, brooooom, wowowowowowowowosh, brooooom
40 laps of crashing on the autobahn, 160 laps of normal autobahn driving
Hahaha I feel you. It's hard for us Europeans to see the appeal of NASCAR. It's an American thing you know. Explosions, fires, crashes, TV commentators waiting for WOOOOH THAT'S A BIG ONEEEE. The fact that Indycar is very much less popular there tells you a lot.
@@TenthAvenue94 probably more of an acquired taste I guess lol. I like nascar because of how unpredictable it is, the racing being so close and all at once, y’know?
Thank you NASCAR for putting the compete race on you tube. I was on the edge of my seat to see if we would have a first time straight 3 year champion.
Thanks NASCAR for the upload.
Hello, new Nascar fans here... I didn't know that Nascar post a full race replay like fia wec. That's an amazing thing for sure. Keep it up guys 👍
That's cool to watch Michael McDowell win the NASCAR Cup Series 2021 Daytona 500 full race on KZhead and got his first career NASCAR Cup Series win from this race too.
The no.2 car looked like he slowed to block, the no.34 was not having it, bumped him once, and then bumped him once more sending him into the back of the no.22 car sending both cars out of control, no.34 goes high and shoots out of the turn into the straight taking the lead and then the victory. Crazy race, Good job to all the drivers that was a pretty good race
That crash at the end was the hardest hits by several cars I ever seen in 30 years of watching, wow😐
Thank you for uploading this! Awesome for us Aussies to be able to watch full races!!
For sure man, ever since Ambrose left NASCAR .. it's the only place we can see full races!
Agreed. Although if they could go back to neutral titles and thumbnails rather than spoiling the results that would be awesome
@@Pickendi exactly!! And free which is always nice
@@Dd-ue4ct yeah that would be nice hahaha
Considering the weather all week and none of the drivers getting the right amount of practice it was inevitable that this race was wild from the start. Scary and wild. See the last lap of this race made me immediately think of Dale Sr.
Glad you guys upload race replays, because those of us who don't have cable miss out on them often. I have the channel that this race played on, but I couldn't catch the race; was too busy.
Took 14 years for Michael Mcdowell to win his first race of his career. Man oh Man.
And he had to take out the two cars ahead of him to do so 😂😂😂
@@murphmuffin9069 yup rip brad and joeys relationship
@@murphmuffin9069 What about the line of cars pushing McDowell? Its 100% on Joeys bad block. If he wasnt a shit teammate/manufacturer aligned driver, there wouldnt have been a wreck. Ford wants them to stay in line and get the best finish for Ford as a whole, not just a single team or driver. Joey has repeatedly pulled out on McDowell and Brad to get the glory for himself, so why should they stay in line with him? Race like a dick bag, get raced like a dick bag. He chose to try that block, it caused a wreck. How is that on McDowell, he didnt throw a bad block? He just went with the car in front of him against one that would have hung him out in the same situation and they got blocked.
@@AgtWashingtub when they wrecked no one was pushing Mcdowell, Chase had let off at the time, but Brad was still behind Logano and was lined up pretty well, it wasn't until mcdowell shoved Keselowski while moving down the track that they wrecked. Idk how you can say it's Logano's fault, I think Mcdowell was literally just trying to move Brad out of his way and Brad hit Logano's bumper at a bad angle 🤷♂️
@@elijahsaleem8618 “joined 15 minutes ago” But it was your fault, that 🅱️ig one©️®️™️ at the end.
So glad they uploaded this. Don’t wanna miss a race this year but with all the rain delays, I couldn’t watch it bc I had to work that night and I tried recording it and up recording freaking bowling 🙄🤦♂️
Thank you for posting this. Much appreciated.
Awesome race, thanks drivers and nascar. Hopefully you will be putting the TRUCK RACE here very soon... please, please, please Nascar.
I love how Toyota has managed to get the Camry be mentioned with mustangs.
im so happy for him to win that race he has always got the screwed sooooooo many times great job you deserve it
Finally known for something other than that wreck in texas
That’s good that we have full race replays from the races
Bowyer (I hope I spelled it right) and Gordon together was fun to listen to...Thanks NASCAR. Shouting from Mainz, Germany....
That was a tense finish. First 500 I've not been at for 3 years. Hopefully can get there next year. The atmosphere is electric.
Kyle Busch: "...why do we SUCK at plate races?" Mike Joy: "...Kyle Busch has sucked his way up to second..." lol...
And Kyle cry baby bush still sucks
I love this quote
if the lap 14 crash didnt happen, i think this race would be on par as the 2018, 2019, or 2020 Daytona 500s
thanks very much for full racing!!
Wheel caches on fire: team puts out the fire, it’ll be grand gogogo 1 Corner out of pit lane: caches fire again 😂

Thanks for posting, when will Xfinity and Trucks be uploaded?
Thank you so much nascar for sharing this i would love to see more of those
thx for the full race @NASCAR
Thanks for uploading!!!!
I thought McDowell caused the wreck, but after watching the slow mo, it clearly was Logano's block that started it. Congratulations to McDowell, and that helmet is freaking awesome.
Well i mean, the last big race he won was 2018 championship, and it would have been his 2nd 500, but i see your point
I don't know about clearly Logano's fault, I've watched it from several different angles multiple times and honestly i think it was a little of logano and McDowell, i think just a little before brad and Joey make contract it seems brad squirels a bit from that big push from McDowell
@@lj5660 You can clearly see McDowell ram Keselowski who (due to the ram from behind) speeds up and then hits Logano sending him into the wall.
@@justranting4510 yeah it started there, but i think without Logano's block it wouldn't have turned into a wreck. But without McDowell's push i think Logano's block wouldn't have caused a wreck if you understand what I'm getting at. Know that I'm saying this as a big logano fan
@@justranting4510 It's not "ramming". If the car in front can't outpace the car behind it gets rightfully bumped and passed. If you don't see my point, what should a slower, lapped car do in the same scenario, get in everyone else's way?
Finally I can watch the whole race and not fall asleep with thirty to go

Dw, I like nascar too mate
Stay with us boys. I'm an old Nascar fan who was born in Daytona Beach and grew up going to most every race there. I have watched the sport grow and change. It has its lame years, but when the years and rivalries are good, they are good. Welcome, Race Fans!
But at least this season has been the best one I’ve ever experienced thank you NASCAR 💪🏼💪🏼!
Well thanks for the effing spoiler in the previous video's title, saved me from watching 3 hours of exciting racing and witnessing one of my favourites winning the race. Guess I was having a too good a day already.
Finally I can watch the daytona. I didn't get to watch cuz I went to bed during the rain deley
This race went bloody better than 2020's 500
And Michael McDowell from Glendale, Arizona, driving for Bob Jenkins's Front Row Motorsports, has won the Daytona 500
It's hard to find a actual favorite driver but Michael McDowell is someone I would like. He is the 1st winner of the race who I do not got a car of his not one he maybe one of the few I would want.
I’m new to watching this and I love it
I also ask why I like him he had an American flag on his helmet love that! And he was the 40th person to win Daytona 500. 40th!!!
He's proud to be American
He also had a cross with words in it I couldn’t red it but I agree McDowell is a great driver and my favorite one
Better than on TV!

@@LotusesPictures he got a second chance after he did an apology
I didn't see my first live race until 02. But I watch every one of the 500s leading up to that year. It's surprising to hear Derrick Cope wasn't in the 2001 Daytona 500. I know he is older, no dis-respect to that, it's just surprising to hear.

What damn good is a nascar race without the audio? NO DAMN GOOD!!
Credit to McDowell winning this race. I'll admit I'm glad NASCAR got this race in even though it ended after midnight local time or 5am here in the UK. I think NASCAR should consider starting the daytona 500 race earlier next year.
I didnt see it on camera but I liked what Chastain and Reddick both did to help McDowell get car out of the mud that was very nice to their credit good in Tyler and Ross to do that. They both could possibly this year give nascar its 200th different race winner this year potentially but will see.

i love the heartrate monitor thing was funny XD
I still watch every weekend but I'm about the last out of everybody I know here in Georgia
Unconventional opinion : I think McDowell actually gave Brad one last bump JUST when Brad moved down to pass Joey, just before McDowell's nose came into view - that way McDowell would've hit Brad on the right rear instead of the middle (inadvertently), got him loose, Brad started to countersteer and basically overcorrected. That's the only plausible explanation why Brad veered off to the right in such a strange fashion. Contact from Joey wouldn't have caused that, see Kes v Edwards '09. AT THE SAME TIME, you can see Joey switching lanes to block Brad, so you can't say Joey was innocent either. -- I'm just saying that I think this was actually two wrecks happening milliseconds within each other - and Brad's (which was a VERY unfortunate racing incident with his move and McDowell's last bump) actually started a few milliseconds earlier. Without that last Brad-McDowell touch, Brad would've probably won the very same way he won against Edwards at Talladega in 2009 - though he would've had to block at least one more move from McDowell or Elliott.
Exactly I seen that and I think he did that on purpose. So sad this guy can only win after fourteen years by wrecking people !! I hope he gets boo'd now at every race !
