William Byron and Ty Gibbs were close to getting their NASCAR Cup Series seasons back on track with a win at Michigan on Monday, but Tyler Reddick ultimately emerged victorious. Although Byron had a strong showing, finishing second to Reddick, Martin Truex Jr.’s late incident pushed the race into overtime. Despite a valiant effort on restarts, including a muscled lead with the help of Brad Keselowski, Byron ultimately lost the top spot to Reddick in the final laps. Ty Gibbs also made a strong push, finishing in third place behind Byron, which helped solidify his position in the playoff standings with a 39-point cushion over the cutline. While both drivers fell short of victory, their performances marked promising strides in their respective Cup Series campaigns.
