The Cutline’s 2026 Race Weekend Rankings Tier List

by Armany DePaul

What’s Happening?

History has been made in the NASCAR Cup Series. Tyler Reddick became the first driver in the sport’s history to win the first three races of the season. That’s right, not even Richard Petty, Dale Earnhardt, or Jeff Gordon have accomplished this feat, but Reddick and 23XI have. At the track, he won his first race for the Michael Jordan-owned team.

In the O’Reilly Auto Parts Series, Shane van Gisbergen went from sixth to first (I’m not joking) in one corner to take home his first win at Circuit of the Americas. As for Trucks, Layne Riggs came in first in the first ever Truck Series race at St. Petersburg.

Now, how was the racing as a whole? Where do the races stack up against each other? Let’s take a look at my Race Weekend Rankings and see where the COTA/St. Pete Weekend ranks among the rest of the 2026 season!

Check out the latest episode of The Cutline, where Armany broke down the weekend at COTA and St. Pete.

Focused Health 250: B-Tier

• The O’Reilly race at COTA wasn’t bad. There was action throughout the pack, and SVG’s move on the restart to take the lead from outside the top five was spectacular. A solid showing for the O’Reilly series once again

DuraMax Texas Grand Prix Powered by RelaDyne: B-Tier

• Honestly, both the Cup and O’Reilly races can be swapped and I wouldn’t bat an eye. Despite the long green-flag runs, there was a lot of action, such as Reddick vs Blaney, Reddick vs SVG, or Zillisch coming from the back to the front a couple of times. Not the barnburner it was last year, but still a good race.

OnlyBulls Green Flag 150 at St. Petersburg: A-Tier

• This race was so much fun. This race had the ingredients to be a crapshoot, but was anything but that. Seeing the Trucks battle all day long across the streets of St. Pete was so much fun to watch. Oh, and it was easily the best race of St. Pete Weekend (sorry IndyCar).

Cup: Reddick Makes History, Goes 3 For 3 to Start 2026 Season

by Cody Williams

What’s Happening?

The checkered flag flew down in Austin, Texas, as Tyler Reddick made history by winning his third straight race to kick off the 2026 season. With this win, he starts the year with a massive points lead. No other driver is within 70 points of Reddick in the points standings. Who would have guessed going into this race that SVG not only wouldn’t be the dominant car but also would only lead a handful of laps? The No. 97 team was just off in general, from a slower-than-usual qualifying effort on Saturday and a car that didn’t turn to SVG’s liking. Luckily for much of the field, it opened the door of opportunity for other drivers to pounce and dethrone SVG as King of the road, at least in Austin.

Here are the key things to take away from today’s Cup Series battle at Circuit of the Americas.

✅ DAYTONA
✅ EchoPark Speedway
✅ COTA

• All eyes were on Tyler Reddick going into today’s race as he attempted to do what no driver has ever done before–win the first three races of the season. He was off to a good start, scoring the Busch Light Pole Award for the second week in a row. When the green flag dropped, he led the opening three laps before surrendering the lead to Ross Chastain. He remained in contention, though, showing to have one of the best cars, along with Ryan Blaney, late in the going as the two of them duked it out for the win. In the end, though, no one could keep up with Reddick as he went on to capture his third flag in third starts to kick off the 2026 season.
• Shane van Gisbergen, the somewhat undisputed King of the Road, was the guy with the biggest target on his back heading into today’s race. There wasn’t a driver in the field today who didn’t want to see his reign of terror on road courses come to an end. Luckily for them, that No. 97 team was generally off today. They battled handling issues in practice and qualifying and the car wasn’t dialed into SVG’s liking. This hindered his chances to contend for the win and he had to settle for a 2nd place finish.
• Connor Zilisch, who is known for his road racing skills in the NASCAR O’Reilly Auto Parts Series, had a lot of work ahead of him today. He started deep in the pack and remained there for much of the first two stages. However, after the race wore on and cycles of green flag pit stops happened, he found himself solidly in the top 15, battling for a top 10 finish. He ultimately came home in the 14th position.
• The first caution for the incident flew with 21 laps to go as Ross Chastain lost a tire. During the break for caution, Alex Bowman, who was complaining of being sick all race long, went into the garage area and got out of the car. Not having a ready replacement, Chad Knaus approached FOX pit reporter assistant and O’Reilly Auto Parts Series regular, Myatt Snider, to finish the race in the No. 48 Ally Chevy to salvage some points. Up to this point, Bowman was running well in the No. 48 ride. Snyder brought it home in 30th.
• As we leave Austin, Texas, the NASCAR Cup Series heads west to Phoenix for an IndyCar/NASCAR doubleheader. There, Tyler Reddick will attempt to do the impossible and win the first four races of the season.
• Ross Chastain won the Xfinity Fastest Lap.

• Lap 20: End of Stage 1
• Lap 45: End of Stage 2
• Lap 78: Ross Chastain Loses a Tire
