DAYTONA BEACH — The seventh Daytona 500, in 1965, was dramatically shortened by rain — just 133 of 200 laps were completed before rain halted things and Fred Lorenzen left with the wet trophy.
Former F1 and IndyCar driver Mario Andretti won the Daytona 500 in his second start in 1967. Driving Holman Moody's No. 11 Ford, he secured the win despite his team apparently trying to hold him back.
