Ryan Preece’s Daytona Upset | Tulsa News

Ryan Preece stunned fans with a last-lap overtime win at Daytona, clinching the final playoff spot in the Cup Series after years of near-disasters—including two flips—this time driving to victory lane. His triumph silenced doubters and puts Roush Fenway Keselowski Racing in championship contention alongside Chris Buescher. Meanwhile, Shane van Gisbergen’s strong regular season fell short under NASCAR’s new format, while Bubba Wallace and Austin Cindric secured playoff berths. The playoff chase kicks off next Sunday at Darlington, and beyond racing, Tom Cruise is returning to the track for a “Days of Thunder” sequel, while Jimmie Johnson prepares for his final Cup Series race in 2027’s Daytona 500.
