Reddick led only the final lap of the 2026 Daytona 500 but that was enough to secure victory. Starting in 26th position, Reddick capitalized on chaos during the final lap, moving from fourth to first as leader Carson Hocevar was knocked out of contention.
The win marks a historic moment for 23XI Racing, which is co-owned by NBA legend Michael Jordan. Reddick avoided 'The Big One' crash on Lap 124 that took out 20 drivers, positioning himself perfectly for the late-race surge that secured the victory.
