Overview
- Reddick, who started from pole, surged past Kyle Larson on the final lap Sunday at Kansas Speedway to claim his fifth Cup win in the first nine races of 2026.
- The race’s only incident caution came when Cody Ware spun as leaders approached the white flag, sending the field to overtime and prompting two‑tire stops for the frontrunners.
- Larson grabbed the lead on the restart but said his car tightened on two tires, and he settled for second as his winless streak reached 33 races.
- Denny Hamlin led a race‑high 131 laps and won Stage 1 before the late caution upended his advantage, leaving him fourth, while contact in overtime dropped Christopher Bell to 20th.
- 23XI Racing put all four cars in the top 15 as Toyota’s strong start continued with seven wins in the first nine events, and Reddick extended his series lead to about 105 points heading to Talladega.
