The Rolex 24 at Daytona is back for the 64th running of this historic event, and it will be the No. 93 Meyer Shank Racing Acura leading the field of 60 cars to the green flag. However, it was the No. 31 Whelen Cadillac of Action Express that set the fastest time in qualifying, only to later be stripped of pole position after failing post-qualifying inspection.
To watch the Rolex 24 in the United States, you can find the first hour of the race on NBC, starting at 1:30pm EST on Saturday, January 24th. The race will return to NBC for the final two hours of running, as well as a short window for some post-race coverage, beginning at 12pm EST on Sunday, January 25th.
