The NASCAR O’Reilly Series competed at Talladega Superspeedway and it was an exciting event. Carson Kvapil won Stage 1 while Justin Allgaier won Stage 2; However, neither driver won after NASCAR penalized them for impeding cars. Instead, it was a full-time O’Reilly Series driver who won his first career NASCAR race in 2026.
Corey Day and the No. 17 Hendrick Motorsports team won the Ag-Pro 300 at Talladega on Saturday, earning their first victory of the 2026 O’Reilly Series season. Day was able to survive the chaos on the final lap, passing Brent Crews and Sheldon Creed before the caution flag waved on the final lap.
The Hendrick Motorsports driver has come very close to winning the first NASCAR event of his career, but no one expected it to be on a superspeedway track. Now, Day is finally a NASCAR winner and he hopes it will be the first of many. After all, this should give Day even more confidence moving forward.Advertisement
