The 68th running of the Daytona 500 signals the dawn of the 2026 NASCAR Cup Series season, bringing the traditional high-octane spectacle to the high banks of Daytona International Speedway. As the most prestigious event on the racing calendar, "The Great American Race" serves as the ultimate test of patience, drafting skill, and raw courage. All eyes are on the powerhouse teams of Hendrick Motorsports and Team Penske to see if they can maintain their superspeedway dominance, while the Toyota camp led by 23XI Racing looks to make a historic breakthrough. With the field tightly packed and the threat of "The Big One" looming over every lap, the quest for the Harley J. Earl Trophy remains the most unpredictable 500 miles in motorsports.

Result Description
Tyler Reddick secured a monumental victory in the 68th running of the Daytona 500, marking the first win in this event for both himself and the 23XI Racing team co-owned by Michael Jordan and Denny Hamlin. In a race that featured a record-breaking 26 different leaders and 66 lead changes, Reddick led only one lap—the most important one. Driving the No. 45 Toyota, he navigated a chaotic final lap where the leaders tangled coming off Turn 4, allowing him to charge past Chase Elliott and cross the finish line just 0.308 seconds ahead of Ricky Stenhouse Jr.
The afternoon was a mixture of strategic fuel saving and high-intensity drafting that culminated in several multi-car incidents. A major 20-car wreck, often called "The Big One," erupted with seven laps remaining in the second stage after contact between Justin Allgaier and Denny Hamlin, significantly thinning the field of contenders. Despite the carnage, 23XI Racing enjoyed a dominant day with three of its entries finishing in the top ten, including Riley Herbst in eighth and Bubba Wallace in tenth.
Joey Logano and Chase Elliott rounded out the top five, while Brad Keselowski finished fifth despite racing with a recently recovered injury. The victory was especially poignant for Michael Jordan, who celebrated in victory lane just days before his 63rd birthday, describing the win as feeling like a championship.
