NASCAR is getting what it wanted when it scheduled the summer Daytona race as the 2020 regular-season finale for the Cup Series. Multiple drivers have chances to clinch one of the three open playoff spots heading into a Saturday night race at one of motorsports' most unpredictable tracks.

Saturday night's Coke Zero Sugar 400 at Daytona International Speedway will set the 16-driver field for NASCAR's 10-race playoff scheduled to start next week. Clint Bowyer, Matt DiBenedetto and William Byron entered the weekend in the last three playoff positions based on points standings, but Jimmie Johnson and Erik Jones were not far behind.

Daytona 500 winner Denny Hamlin was considered the favorite to win Saturday night's race with Joey Logano and Kevin Harvick close behind on the odds board. Of course, those odds don't mean much in a superspeedway race when simply finishing is the first priority for all 40 drivers.

Sporting News is tracking live race updates and lap-by-lap highlights from Saturday's NASCAR race at Daytona. Follow below for complete results from the Coke Zero Sugar 400.
