He did it again.

A three-peat is rare in any sport, but what Michael Jordan once did on the court has now been mirrored in an entirely different arena: stock car racing. Nearly three decades after dominating with the Chicago Bulls, Jordan has found himself back in historic territory, this time as a team owner, as Tyler Reddick and 23XI Racing open 2026 with an unprecedented three straight wins.

• Has any start in NASCAR history ever truly compared to what Tyler Reddick and 23XI have just accomplished?
• Why have dominant early-season runs from legends like Richard Petty, Dale Earnhardt, and Kevin Harvick so often failed to guarantee championships?
• What role does NASCAR’s unpredictability, from superspeedway chaos to shifting formats, play in preventing sustained dominance?
• And could this historic start actually hold up through an entire season, or is history already warning us what comes next?

This video dives into decades of NASCAR history, comparing iconic hot streaks, shocking collapses, and unforgettable championship runs to put this moment into proper perspective. It builds the case for why this start stands alone, while also reminding how quickly momentum can disappear in this sport. If you want the full breakdown and what it all means for the championship fight, this is a must-watch.
