Official results from 2026 NASCAR Cup race at Circuit…

Michael Jordan was once again right there to watch Tyler Reddick go back-to-back-to-back to open the 2026 NASCAR Cup season.

Reddick is the first driver in NASCAR history to do this at the Cup level, and he had to beat one of the best road racers out there to get it done as Shane van Gisbergen harassed him in the closing laps.

The #45 did not make any mistakes, and Reddick eventually pulled away as SVG faded, finishing second and ending his streak of five consecutive road/street course wins. Christopher Bell, who opted for fresh tires during the final caution, finish third.

Stage 1 winner Ross Chastain finished 35th after losing a wheel late in the race, while Stage 2 winner Ty Gibbs finished fourth in a great day for the #54 team. Chastain also got the bonus point for fastest lap.
