Tyler Reddick Matches his Career-Best Finish at Bristol
Tyler Reddick of 23XI Racing finished in fourth on Sunday in the Food City 500 at Bristol Motor Speedway. Reddick began the race from second after a strong run in qualifying. In the first stage, Reddick ran inside the top 10 for most of the stage, but was impacted by a pit road speeding penalty that sent him back in the pack. The No. 45 Toyota driver finished the first stage in 26th and failed to earn stage points. In the second stage, Reddick tried recovering from the penalty, and while he did gain positions, he fell short of scoring stage points as he ended the stage in 12th. In the final stage, Reddick finally returned to the top 10 and then used a pit strategy of staying out on older tires under the race's final two cautions to gain track position. Reddick then challenged for the win against Ty Gibbs, Ryan Blaney, and Kyle Larson, but faded back to fourth behind the three racers. With his finish of fourth, Reddick matched his best career Bristol finish, and he still remains the points leader in the regular-season standings by 62 points over Blaney after eight races.
