Auto racing:
- David Gilliland and Ricky Rudd are set for the front row of the 49th running of the Daytona 500 as the Robert Yates Racing teammates sweep the front row. However, two contenders for the title, Matt Kenseth (Roush Racing #17) and Kasey Kahne (Evernham Motorsports #9) had their times wiped out after failing post-qualifying inspection and two-time race winner Michael Waltrip's car was impounded due to an abnormal odor found in the carburetor. On Tuesday, the crew chiefs for Kenseth and Kahne were suspended for four races, fined $50,000 (US$) and both teams and their drivers will start the season fifty points in the red. Additionally, two other Evernham teams, those driven by Elliott Sadler (#19) and Scott Wimmer (#10) had their crew chiefs suspended for two races, were fined $25,000 and begin the year 25 points in the hole.

- AFC All-Stars 31, NFC All Stars 28. Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Carson Palmer is the game's MVP with two touchdown passes. A fourth quarter comeback by the NFC, with two touchdowns to tie the game 28–28, was for naught as the AFC got a pass interference call at the two-yard line to set up the game-winning last-second field goal by San Diego Chargers PK Nate Kaeding. The game was marred by an injury to New Orleans Saints QB Drew Brees, dislocating his non-throwing (left) elbow early in the exhibition contest that concluded the 2006 NFL season.

7 February 2007 (Wednesday)

Football (soccer):
- In the aftermath of the Catania riots that postponed or canceled all football matches in Italy since 2 February, the Italian government approved recommendations of a fact-finding panel. The panel found that only four of the thirty-one Italian football stadiums in Serie A and Serie B are capable to host soccer matches. San Siro in Milan is among those ruled out, which means that A.C. Milan and Inter Milan's upcoming Champions League fixtures would probably be moved to neutral sites, as would Parma and Livorno's UEFA Cup fixtures, as their stadia were also declared unsafe by the government. Additionally, no nighttime matches will be held for the rest of February and many matches will be held "behind closed doors" in empty stadiums. In response, several clubs along with the Italian soccer players' union said they would go on strike against these draconian motions.

- NFL Super Bowl XLI at Dolphin Stadium, Miami Gardens, Florida:
  - Indianapolis Colts 29, Chicago Bears 17. The Colts win their first Super Bowl since moving to Indianapolis from Baltimore, namely Super Bowl V, also held in Miami. The Bears' Devin Hester returns the opening kickoff 92 yards for a touchdown, a first for the championship game. After a 53-yard touchdown pass from Peyton Manning to Reggie Wayne closes the gap to one point, Thomas Jones sets up another Bears TD with a 52-yard run. But Indy's defense largely shuts down Chicago after that. Dominic Rhodes' 1-yard touchdown run puts the Colts ahead 16–14 at halftime. The Bears hang in until early in the fourth quarter, when Kelvin Hayden returns a Rex Grossman interception 56 yards for a touchdown. Manning, who goes 25 of 38 for 247 yards with one touchdown and one interception, is named MVP.
