Wood Brothers Racing's Harrison Burton has secured his first NASCAR Cup Series victory in dramatic fashion after a late pass on two-time champion Kyle Busch.

The #8 Chevrolet driver was leading the race heading into the last lap in overtime but was denied a historic victory as Burton passed him on the outside before defending hard around the final turns in Daytona.

Had Busch held on for the win, it would have seen him take a win for the 20th consecutive season in the Cup Series, which would have been historic and broken a record he already holds further.

Instead, Burton - who is the son of 22-time Cup Series race winner Jeff - took his first-ever in the #21 Ford, landing a spot in the Cup Series playoffs whilst simultaneously handing Wood Brothers their 100th Cup Series win in the process.

Behind Burton and Busch, the top-five in Daytona was rounded out by Christopher Bell, Cody Ware, and Ty Gibbs.

The race at Daytona International Speedway certainly delivered in terms of drama, with 16 drivers having been in the lead at one stage, with over 40 changes out front.
