Corey Heim Outduels Tyler Reddick for First NASCAR Cup Win at Inaugural San Diego Race

Heim passed Tyler Reddick with two laps left and gave 23XI Racing a 1-2 finish after Reddick fell to 25th on a flat tire.

  • On Sunday, June 21, 2026, Corey Heim secured his first career NASCAR Cup Series victory at the inaugural Anduril 250 at Naval Base Coronado, leading a 1-2 finish for the team co-owned by Denny Hamlin and Michael Jordan.
  • Tyler Reddick dominated much of the race but suffered a tire issue with two laps remaining, forcing him to surrender the lead in NASCAR's first street race in San Diego.
  • A nine-car incident on a Lap 32 restart caused a nine-minute red flag, sidelining Shane Van Gisbergen, while Bubba Wallace recovered from a costly penalty to finish second.
  • Heim's victory marks the second time in three years that an inaugural street race has produced a first-time winner, reinforcing the organization's status as a top team.
  • Heim prepares for a full-time ride next season with the organization as the Cup Series heads north to Sonoma Raceway on June 28.
