Tuned in to the start by chance. Recognized Leigh from F1, IndyCar, Olympics so decided to stick around and watch the whole thing. What an incredible race!
Man, what a NIGHT!!! Harrison, the Burtons, and the all Wood Brothers are gonna have a big celebration tonight over this!!! Way to go, Harrison!!! You've made all of us proud, kid!!!
The most heartbreaking finish as a Kyle Busch fan, avoiding every single big one, doing the impossible, leading overtime into the final turn, to just falling short again like last year, I am proud of KB for not wrecking burton when he easily could have. And shoutout burton for the win
@@DRXGSTALXRICSI couldn’t believe how he avoided every single wreck, I thought this was finally the win, but somehow burton and Parker was the difference since bell forgot how to push 😭
@@mariaaparicio7405 , Well Then, I am Laughing at You Too. Kry baby Kyle. LMAOff !!! My New favorite Hero, Burton, anybody making a bad day for the 8 .
18 years of watching this sport, this is by far the most insane race I ever seen. That and the 2019 fall Talladega race. Im so glad I got 2 new fans watching this race since Ive been bugging them to watch this race and they would always not want to or miss out. Now they witnessed that with me
Lmao what? 2007 Daytona 500, 2012 Talladega fall race, 2010 Daytona 500. All more "insane" than this. Not saying the race was bad or anything, and it certainly did not lack excitement, but yea there's been crazier.
Regardless of what we say about the playoffs and the “Mickey Mouse” part of this win, let’s all gather round and agree Leigh Diffey was a barnstormer tonight with his commentary.
Absolutely legendary call to the finish by Diffey, an absolute treat to listen to. I think I’ve replayed that last lap over ten times just to hear that call!
But why? He did fantastic job with Olympics I get that, but I feel he should have been quiet on last half lap and let Jeff call the race. That would have been better
@@yancyjenkinssr1824 no, Jeff sucks. He is not a good play by play announcer. i don't mind him being part of the team with all the hate he gets. But he wouldn't have added anything nor would it be anywhere as good as what Leigh did on the last few laps.
@@yancyjenkinssr1824 Jeff Burton calling the last lap would've been perfect. Reminded us of what took place when Dale Jarrett won his 1st Daytona 500 back in 1993. That last lap...the mic given to Dale's dad, Ned Jarrett. How Sweet That Was!!!
The TV happened to broadcast this race, so I watched Nascar for the 1st time as a F1 fan, and this race is amazing. Congrats to Barton for winning, and I feel sorry for No.4 for flipping ❤
That's the first time I have ever seen Jeff Burton have nothing the say!! For a brief moment! ( Love It ) Congrats to your son for a fantastic finish!! Harrison Burton your the Man..
Great for Harrison Burton and Wood Brothers but this proves that there is something wrong in the playoffs format. it's incredible that the last full-time driver in the standings will be in the playoffs just because he won a wild race.
@@lightfeather9953 If I'm being honest, I mainly only watch NASCAR for the racing product at this point, not for the playoffs. If NASCAR was like F1 with their racing product, I probably would have stopped watching.
Standing at the finish line a winner of a race at Daytona, in the Cup series, checkered flag in one hand and your girl in the other? That's going to be a good Monday at the office!
Not saying he doesn't deserve a win, but he didn't deserve that win...if KB doesn't lift, the 21 gets spun! Plus it's another wasted spot in the playoffs...the 21 and Burton hasn't done anything impressive all season. He'll be out after round 1, and screwed over someone that deserves to be in the playoffs
It was inevitable people would hate on Leigh Diffey based on his accent. The amount of people online calling an Australian man with an American citizenship WHO HAS CALLED NASCAR RACES BEFORE "some British guy" is laughable. A guy from Mexico and a guy from New Zealand have won NASCAR races this year. Racing is for everyone, and so is it's commentary booth. If you don't like it, shut up and listen to MRN.
Kyle’s not one of my favourites but I still really like him (and I’ve even met him before and he was hella nice) and I was rooting for him on that last lap
Best season since 2011. Leigh Diffy with an all time iconic call during the last lap there as well. Possibly also the best next gen superspeedway race, even with all the wrecks.
Heck of a race I watched! Tons of action, great racing and just pure fun out there. And an underdog winner as well. Easily my favorite race of this season in 2024
Came over from the UK to watch my first ever NASCAR race live....OMG! It was incredible!! Best sporting event I've ever seen....amazing!!!!
Nothing else in motorsport compares to this excitement and drama. Even better under the lights!
Congrats ! Hope you enjoyed everything !
10/10 commentary in the finish telling Jeff Burton that his "little boy has done it". Well Done
His*
@@TheJingles007 thanks
Nascar stole him from Indycar. He is fitting right in.
Onya Leigh Diffey , hard luck to Bush, well Wood Bro & young Burton
🌵🌵💀💀👍👍🌵🌵 Big Time !!!

Me too. Leigh did not disappoint. What a call it was
the perfect commentator
Good call by NBC to bring him in. Welcome to Nascar!😊
@@brianlecorchick welcome back*
That call by Leigh Diffey, this could be one of the most iconic calls in NASCAR history.
It'll never top Bestwick's 2001 Pepsi 400 call.
Ever.
Ned's last lap call by far
@@JoeEsandersonnostalgia
mute....
GTFOH with that nonsense😂.
This race needs to be in a museum. Goated
Is that Leigh Diffey calling the race?? Hell yes NASCAR! More of this!!
He's the new PxP guy now that Indycar is going to FOX next year. He'll call all Cup races the rest of this year, Rick Allen will do Xfinity.
I was at the race, it was AMAZING. Congrats to burton for getting that 100th win
“BUT, HERE COMES HARRISON BURTON!!!”
That line is chills
The new guy Nascar stole from Indycar. Enjoy him
More like "THERE GOES HARRISON BURTON!!" Guy was flying lol
Great aussie style calling tbh, we hear this a lot in aussie football and horse racing, really great calls by Diffey
Legendary
Man, what a NIGHT!!! Harrison, the Burtons, and the all Wood Brothers are gonna have a big celebration tonight over this!!! Way to go, Harrison!!! You've made all of us proud, kid!!!
Harrison Burton is NOT a bust anymore
wood brothers always gets these feel good wins i swear
Leigh Diffey is the best commentator, thank you Nascar for bringing him in
Absolutely not.

Bell didn't forget how to push, Busch didn't back up to him once he broke away. Burton backed up to pick up Retzlaf, that's why he won.
This 2024 Season is insane dude 💀🙏
I’m still wondering how Harrison won💀

2022 Daytona was also insane up until the wreck
Just wait until they watch a regular track and are disappointed
@@TheJingles007 Really. There's been many more "insane" races than this one

Not saying the race was bad or anything, and it certainly did not lack excitement, but yea there's been crazier.
Before that, when Harvick won at Atlanta right after Earnhardt died would top it for you. EDIT: in Earnhardt's car
Regardless of what we say about the playoffs and the “Mickey Mouse” part of this win, let’s all gather round and agree Leigh Diffey was a barnstormer tonight with his commentary.
keep Leigh Diffey please, commentary felt so fresh with him around
Yep, he just brings a little more umph to it I think. Going to miss him in IndyCar though.
This was one of the craziest, most entertaining, mind boggling races I’ve ever seen in any Motorsport in my 21 years. Like what didn’t happen?
What a debut for Leigh Diffey. Welcome to nascar on nbc Leigh Diffey
Like he never did it before. He has substituted Rick Allen before, during the olympics. perhaps 2016?
Absolutely legendary call to the finish by Diffey, an absolute treat to listen to. I think I’ve replayed that last lap over ten times just to hear that call!
NBC made the perfect move w/ shifting Leigh Diffey into the Cup booth for the remainder of the season!
But why? He did fantastic job with Olympics I get that, but I feel he should have been quiet on last half lap and let Jeff call the race. That would have been better

How Sweet That Was!!!
What an awesome race
Probably one of if not, the best races of the season

Hard everything possible

Ehhh, not really. Kansas was good and wasn't a wreckfest
Top 3 de las mejores carreras del 2024:

I was Leigh was still on the Indy Car broadcast. He certainly elevates the NASCAR broadcast.
That's the first time I have ever seen Jeff Burton have nothing the say!! For a brief moment! ( Love It ) Congrats to your son for a fantastic finish!! Harrison Burton your the Man..
We NEED more Lee Diffey in Nascar. This was a great race and Dif's call was the icing on the cake and moved this to an All-Time great race tier!!
Great for Harrison Burton and Wood Brothers but this proves that there is something wrong in the playoffs format. it's incredible that the last full-time driver in the standings will be in the playoffs just because he won a wild race.
So what that's what this format was all about

Leigh Diffey is by far my favorite motorsports announcer. Cannot wait to hear more from him. Major props to NBC for getting him in the booth.
The Australian dude brought some excitement
That's Leigh Diffey. He was spectacular the entire race.
Leigh Diffey react to Harrison Burton wins victory in Daytona Night Races Coke Zero Sugar 400 was a Amazing ever
He should have given the mic over to Jeff on last lap and remained quiet
A real announcer
Leigh diffey is an amazing announcer. Im happy he took the lead, and allowed Jeff to enjoy his son winning his first race.
Love this new announcer Dippey, exciting call of the race made you feel like every lap was the last, he should have a life contract with NASCAR
What a Daytona race that was
who is this amazing british announcer, finally, some excitement from the booth!
Love this commentary.
Did the new fin make these cars racier? By far the best they've looked on a super speedway.
.
Congratulations Harrison Burton and the wood Brothers 100th win!! 👍
I don't care who your favourite is, nobody can say Burton didn't deserve a win.What an amazing finish!!

@@rhower3698true
Miss the ending but super happy that burton won it.
To the point of the playoffs, nascar needs to scrap it and go back to the old point system
That was a 10/10 finish. was not expecting that
The 2 big ones were awesome! I was really sad about Berry flipping at Daytona, Glad he is okay!
Congrats to Harrison, well-deserved for surviving throughout the night. Always good to see the 21 back in victory lane too.
It was inevitable people would hate on Leigh Diffey based on his accent. The amount of people online calling an Australian man with an American citizenship WHO HAS CALLED NASCAR RACES BEFORE "some British guy" is laughable.
A guy from Mexico and a guy from New Zealand have won NASCAR races this year. Racing is for everyone, and so is it's commentary booth. If you don't like it, shut up and listen to MRN.
I guess people are just a bunch of assholes.
Not liking Diffey calling the race is like not liking ice cream and puppies either.
What a call keep him in the booth
The definition of a good race is whether 20 cars wreck and a guy 34th in points wins out of nowhere
But eh gotta love a good underdog win every once in awhile
That's what happens when you have 40 cars in a superspeedway
As a racing purists it's an absolute shitshow but, it's so entertaining kinda like how Bowman Gray isn't "great racing" but, exciting as all get out!
Seen that at Dover back in 1995 where Kyle Petty started 37th and won his last race.
So proud as a Aussie to hear Leigh Diff in the booth!
Man, the energy, the excitement that Diffey brought that last half lap...what a call. What an addition. Love it
As a father, I felt that! I am so pleased for the both of them, that actually brought tears to my eyes. If you know, then you know.
That was a nice save by 42. Side note as a burton fan this feels good
Leigh Diffey will be remembered as one of the greatest sports commentators of his time. Indycar’s loss is NASCAR’s MAJOR gain.
As a loyal KB fan. I admit defeat. There’s nothing we can do but hope he wins in 2024
My son josheph martinez is a kyle busch fan and i saw him bout to cry when busch lost.
Kyle’s not one of my favourites but I still really like him (and I’ve even met him before and he was hella nice) and I was rooting for him on that last lap
He’s gonna have another chance at Dega to keep his winning streak alive.
You’ve had so many wins rooting for KB. Back to reality
Kyle did really good
After post-race inspection, every car except for Martin Truex, Jr. has been eliminated
Oh boy I wish 🤣🤣
First career win Harrison burton
For Wood Brothers racing team
@@muhammadwahyuhidayat21498 YES! 100th
Wow, Harrison Burton's FIRST EVER WIN!
Cody Ware finished in 4TH, his BEST CAREER FINISH!
Parker Retzlaff finished 7TH!
INSANE RACE!
Damn that was a good finish. Harrison Burton definitely earned that win. And against Kyle Busch no less.
I could listen to Leigh Diffey call professional curling world championships live from Norway.
Coke Zero is fire.
Also, Leigh Diffey never disappoints on the last lap.
I vote Leigh Diffey to stay in the booth for every race.
Diffy is like having David Hobbs on play by play and I like it!
Harrison Burton doesn't just deserve the win... He earned it.
Tears and pain
First time?
@@ZPaul_ He’s a KB fan, so yes
Now you know how us Jimmie Johnson fans felt from 2018-2020.😭
Leigh Diffey is an absolute beast. He adds so much excitement!
Is me or did you hear the exact “ WHOWWWWWWWWW” when Berry flipped and 34 near flip
A Ford being on the front row, and another Ford with the win. What about it?
Mature decision from kyle not to wreck him in the final turn
Congratulations, Harrison and the wood brothers!!
That was exciting. Great commentary
Dis race just had it all 💪🏼💪🏼
Great race today!!!
Outstanding race, congrats to Harrison but
Burton,
Thanks for showing any of the passes from stage one.
Each time i replay that last call tears comes out
that was such an intense last lap with so much on the line
The Amazing Commentary Call And Great Finish Ending
This guy is THE GOAT of racing announcers.. Just listen to that ending. He Is The Key to NASCAR Ratings.

Races at Daytona are always a lot of Fun
THANK YOU SO MUCH. I LOVE SPENDING TIME WITH MY NASCAR FAMILY!!! YOU GUYS ROCK THE RACETRACK!!!

Tonight's commentary by Leigh Diffey was fantastic.
¡Qué debut para Leigh Diffey! ¡Bienvenidos a Nascar en NBC! Leigh Diffey
A good race is defined as one in which twenty cars crash and a man who is 34th in points unexpectedly wins.
Please keep Leigh Diffey around; his commentary felt so new.
Best season since 2011. Leigh Diffy with an all time iconic call during the last lap there as well. Possibly also the best next gen superspeedway race, even with all the wrecks.

Nice to see NASCAR went back to its peak with Diffey commentating. Would be even more if we remove 2014 Elimination Playoff format permanently.
Man i totally forgot it was saturday night and not sunday and missed all of this
Same…
Amazing race

Glad to see Burton win. Especially glad to see wood brothers with there 100th race. I thought they never see 100 before the last brother passed away.
