Entering this race, Tyler Reddick had a 95-point lead over Ryan Blaney, who is now 82 points behind after Reddick’s worst finish of the 2026 season so far — which is only 15th.
Reddick’s 23XI Racing teammate Bubba Wallace had a DNF, making him the biggest loser in the points as he fell from third all the way to 11th. However, he is currently locked into a four-way tie for eighth, so it’s not as bad as it looks.

The biggest gainer was Josh Berry, who jumped from 32nd to 25th in points after his first top ten since the Daytona 500.
Around the cutline, Joey Logano’s third-place finish bumped him off the hot seat with Daniel Suarez now sitting on the bubble, just nine points clear of his Spire Motorsports teammate Michael McDowell.
