Absolutely insane finish.

Reddick the leader on by far the best tires with three to go. But runs out of gas, has to hit switch to reserve tank, and hits the wall a bit. Hamlin passes him and looks to be headed for an easy win. Caution as Hamlin is 200 yards from the white flag.

Race rests after leaders pit and Larson takes total control on the overtime finish but Reddick runs him down with a half-lap to go from a half-second behind!!

That was an exciting OT finish .

I really thought Larson had the race
Thought I was dead. Had Reddick and Hamlin.

Shocked Reddick didn’t pull away once he passed Hamlin but he was running out of fuel so those wiggles make sense. Also shocked to see the first yellow of the race on the backstretch with Denny going for the white flag.

Still have no clue how Reddick caught Larson on equal tires final half-lap of overtime. Larson was gone.
