With the 2025 Würth 400 at Texas Motor Speedway rapidly approaching, Kevin Harvick has singled out 23XI Racing’s Tyler Reddick as the predicted winner for this highly anticipated NASCAR Cup Series race. Scheduled for Sunday, May 4, at one of the sport’s most recognizable tracks, Harvick’s prediction comes amid rising tension and excitement, especially as 23XI Racing continues to make impressive strides this season.
On his popular podcast, “Kevin Harvick’s Happy Hour,” the 2014 NASCAR Cup Series champion discussed the upcoming Texas Cup event alongside co-hosts Kaitlyn Vincie and Mamba Smith. Harvick’s reasoning for choosing Tyler Reddick was clear: Reddick’s history at Texas is strong, highlighted by a victory in 2022, along with an impressive record that includes two poles, three top-five finishes, and four top-ten results across nine starts at this venue.
“I’m going with Tyler Reddick. He’s been fast at Texas, and 23XI Racing has been putting the right pieces together there,” Harvick said, reflecting both confidence and a watchful eye on the patterns that matter most. Meanwhile, Vince opted for Kyle Larson, the 2021 Texas Cup race winner, to secure his third victory of the season, while Smith backed Reddick’s teammate, Bubba Wallace, emphasizing the wide-open competitive field shaped by 23XI Racing’s lineup.
Looking at the current season stats, 23XI Racing’s No. 45 Toyota, piloted by Reddick, has already notched significant achievements after ten races: one pole, three top-five finishes, four top-tens, and 85 laps led, resulting in an average finish of 12.6. Reddick stands sixth in overall points with 303 and, notably, is listed as the odds-on favorite to capture his first win of the year at Texas.
The focus now sharpens on whether Harvick’s prediction will prove accurate as the racers take to the track this weekend. The impact of a 23XI Racing victory would be felt both within the team’s camp and across the NASCAR community, potentially reshaping the championship race. Fans are encouraged to tune in to the Würth 400 on FS1 at 3:30 pm ET, while radio coverage will be provided by PRN and SiriusXM NASCAR Radio, ensuring that no moment of this pivotal contest is missed.
