Still, Reddick leads the series with most top fives (11) and top 10s (17). He also continues to lead the points and is on verge of winning the regular season championship.

2. Kyle Larson (2) — He scored points in both stages at Daytona for the first time in the last three races. His 21st-place finish is his second consecutive finish outside the top 20. Still, his result moved him to second in the points heading into the regular season finale.
