Tyler Reddick is off to a red hot start in 2026 winning the Daytona 500, picking up the win at Atlanta last weekend and seting his eyes on Circuit of the Americas in Austin, Texas to win three in a row to start the season.
Let’s look back at the off season and the middle of all sports media was 23/XI Racing against NASCAR in an anti-trust lawsuit, now we see the three-car team owned by Denny Hamlin and Michael Jordan dominating in the early part of the season.
Reddick landed his Michael Jordan-owned Toyota on the pole and didn’t look back from there. He found himself up front for a majority of the day and fended off a late race rally by road course ace, Shane Van Gisbergen, and went on to win his second race ever at COTA and his 11th career victory.
