One To Watch

Will Tyler Reddick reclaim the No. 1 spot in the NASCAR Cup standings after this weekend? Well, for several weeks, he led the pack until Hamlin took over. Now, Reddick is only one point behind Denny. In 2026 so far, the driver of the No. 45 23XI Toyota has five wins and four poles. He’s led 428 laps and has 132 stage points. He comes into this race on the heels of a disastrous Sonoma where he finished at the very back of the field because of mechanical issues.
