While Denny Hamlin earned a milestone win in his NASCAR Cup Series career in Sunday night's Dixie Vodka 400 at Homestead-Miami Speedway, the 12th race of the 2020 season, there were a multitude of competitors who earned strong results and left Miami satisfied with their performances.
After qualifying fifth, rookie Tyler Reddick scored an eighth place finish in the Coca-Cola 600 at Charlotte Motor Speedway Sunday night in his No. 8 Richard Childress Chevrolet.
When the green flag waved and 40 of NASCAR's elite made their first Cup Series start since the first week of March, seven made their first premier series start at Darlington Raceway, (six were rookies).
With the rise of Tyler Reddick to two-time XFINITY Series champion, we may be witnessing the rise of something huge. Reddick's ability behind the wheel may make him more than just a NASCAR star, it may just make him a legend in the sport.
As seen in year's past, if you want to win the championship, you will more than likely also have to win the race. Tyler Reddick did just that at Homestead-Miami Speedway and capped off a perfect season by earning his sixth win of the 2019 season.
Four drivers are set to compete for the 2019 NASCAR Xfinity Series championship title this weekend at Homestead-Miami Speedway. It is a diverse group of drivers from four different teams representing Chevrolet, Ford and Toyota manufacturers.
