Reddick led on the white flag lap, but Brad Keselowski pushed Michael McDowell back out front and into the lead as the field went into Turns 1 and 2.
Entering the tri-oval, McDowell blocked Keselowski in the outside lane and Keselowski dove to the inside. McDowell, just a step slow, tried to block that move as well but instead his No. 34 Ford got turned into the wall.
As cars scattered throughout the infield from the wreck, Reddick drove by Keselowski and took the checkered flag by 0.208 seconds for his first win of the 2024 season.
Roughly 30 laps earlier, the seven Toyotas had all pit together to kick off a final round of green flag stop only to see four of them get taken out of a contention in a wreck on lap 156 of 188.
Corey LaJoie’s No. 7 Chevrolet, one of those caught up in the last lap wreck, wound up on its side and crossed the finish line before ending up landing on all four wheels. No one was injured in the wreck.
Noah Gragson ended up third, Ricky Stenhouse Jr. fourth and Alex Bowman rounded out the top five.

During a round of green flag pit stops late in the stage, Lajoie spun off the exit of pit road but was able to get re-fired and back on track without a caution.
Stage 3
Following the break between Stages 2 and 3, most of the lead lap cars elected to pit with Logano first off pit road. Logano led Larson and Cindric when the race resumed with 62 laps remaining.
Entering Turn 3 on lap 133, Elliott got into Justin Haley, who got into Christopher Bell and Bell’s 20 Toyota spun and slammed into the wall in an incident that also collected Chase Briscoe and Zane Smith. Bell was knocked out of the race.
