NASCAR Green Flag Speed Rankings from the 2024 GEICO 500 at Talladega Superspeedway. Use this NASCAR loop data info to build lineups on DraftKings.
The NASCAR Cup Series ran the GEICO 500 at Talladega Superspeedway on Sunday afternoon, with Tyler Reddick grabbing the win after a massive wreck was triggered as the field came to take the checkered flag. It is Reddick's first win of the season and sixth of his career.
When it came to Green Flag Speed, the Stewart-Haas Racing teammates of Ryan Preece and Noah Gragson were the fastest in that category, followed by another Ford in Todd Gilliland. A couple of Chevrolets--Daniel Hemric and Carson Hocevar--rounded out the top five.
Remember, Green Flag Speed at superspeedways isn't a very accurate indicator of who had the best car. Talladega is a great "equalizer" track, so take these rankings with a grain of salt.
