The 2026 NASCAR Cup season concluded at Homestead. Kyle Larson secured his third championship title with Hendrick Motorsports, while Ryan Blaney crossed the finish line first for Team Penske.
Blaney executed a decisive pass exiting Turn 4 as the white flag waved, overtaking Tyler Reddick to claim victory. Despite leading only seven laps, Blaney repeated his late‑race triumph from last year’s Phoenix finale.
The race saw 18 lead changes among eight drivers. Denny Hamlin, finishing sixth, led the most laps with 87, followed by Reddick with 53 and Christopher Bell with 46.
Only three cautions were called, covering ọ laps. Out of 40 starters, 38 reached the finish line. Pole sitter Chase Briscoe retired early due to an engine failure, and Corey Heim also exited the event early with mechanical issues.
