BROOKLYN, Mich. (AP) — Tyler Reddick took the lead on a restart in the second overtime and won Monday at Michigan International Speedway, adding another spot for a driver in NASCAR Playoffs.

Reddick is one of 12 drivers who have secured a postseason berth, with four spots still open with the remaining races at Daytona and Darlington. He also won a Cup Series race four months ago in his No. 45 Toyota for 23XI, the team of Denny Hamlin and Michael Jordan.

Martin Truex Jr. spun off the track in the No. 19 Toyota on lap 194, prompting a yellow flag and a restart with six laps to go.

Reddick was in the lead at the first restart and the race went into the second overtime when Ross Chastain, running 11th, was involved in an accident that earned him another caution period.

William Byron led on the second restart, but Reddick passed him.

Kyle Larson, who leads the Cup standings and BetMGM Sports Betting Lewis Hamilton, considered the favorite, lost control of his No. 5 Chevrolet on lap 115 and several cars became tangled in the chaos.

A few laps later, Joey Logano brought his damaged No. 22 Ford into the garage and Bubba Wallace’s No. 23 Toyota suffered a blow that slowed the struggling driver’s relative success in the race.

The pile-up left Logano in 33rd place, with Larson one place behind in the 36-car field.

Austin Dillon finished 17th, a week after destroying Logano and Hamlin on the final lap at Richmond to win, stripping him of his automatic playoff spot as a result of NASCAR’s decision. Dillon’s appeal is scheduled for Wednesday.

NASCAR The race in Michigan was interrupted after time ran out due to rain on Sunday.

On lap 51 of Sunday’s 200-lap race, the cars went to pit road and the engines remained idle until Monday morning. Chase Elliott was the leader. Elliott finished 15th.

Kyle Busch won the second stage, the first for him and Richard Childress Racing this season. Busch became the 19th driver to win a stage in 2024, which set a single-season record, and the sixth to win a stage in every year since NASCAR added the innovation in 2017.
