Tyler Reddick just flat out took Sunday’s NASCAR Cup Series Freeway Insurance 500 at the Phoenix Raceway. The dude in the No. 45 powered his 23XI Racing Toyota straight to victory in the desert, grabbing control after he pulled off an insane move, overtaking Chase Briscoe right after a late-race restart. Seriously, that was some clutch driving when it mattered most.
Reddick’s Unstoppable Streak: Most Wins In The Series
This wasn’t just another win for Reddick, either. This makes it his sixth victory of the 2026 Cup Series season, which is more than any other driver out there. Think about that for a second: six wins! The guy is absolutely stacking them up. It’s also his first time back in Victory Lane since Kansas back in April, so he clearly found that extra gear when it counted. He showed everyone in Phoenix he’s still got that top-tier speed and the guts to make the move for the lead.
The Chase for Phoenix: Who Else Showed Up
While Reddick was the one celebrating the big win, Joey Logano wasn’t messing around earlier in the race. Logano actually snatched both Stage 1 and Stage 2 wins, proving he had the pace early on. But in the end, it was Reddick who broke through, leaving the rest of the field, including the likes of Ryan Blaney, Chase Elliott, and Christopher Bell, trying to chase him down. This win puts a massive exclamation point on Reddick’s season and really shows what he’s capable of. The rest of the Cup Series better be watching because Reddick is on a whole different level right now.
