Straight Talk Wireless 500 Highlights: Ryan Blaney Wins, Giving Penske Desert Sweep
Updated: Mar 08, 2026 - 7:30 PM ET
Tyler Reddick's quest to win four races in a row fell short in the Straight Talk Wireless 500 at Phoenix Raceway in Avondale, Arizona, but another team had a dominant week.
Ryan Blaney raced to victory on Sunday, becoming the first driver other than Reddick to win a race in the 2026 NASCAR season. The victory gave Team Penske two victories in the Desert Double, with Josef Newgarden winning Saturday's INDYCAR race at Phoenix Raceway.
Here are the highlights from Sunday's Straight Talk Wireless 500.
