Who Won The 2026 NASCAR O’Reilly Auto Parts Series Championship?

Justin Allgaier became the 2026 NASCAR O’Reilly Auto Parts Series champion on Saturday night at the Homestead-Miami Speedway. The driver of the No. 7 finished seventh in the 200-lap season-finale race to keep a 14-point advantage over 2025 champion Jesse Love.

Allgaier, who won the regular season championship and a series-high six wins, claimed his second O’Reilly Auto Parts Series title in the last three years. The 40-year-old becomes just the 10th driver in series history to win multiple championships.

Brandon Jones won Saturday’s season-finale race in the No. 20 Joe Gibbs Racing Toyota. Jones overtook Carson Kvapil with 13 circuits remaining to drive to his second win of the 2026 season and ninth career O’Reilly Auto Parts Series win.

Jesse Love, who entered 22 points behind Allgaier, finished fourth and managed to gain eight points on the lead. Unfortunately for Love, it was not enough to claim the championship.

Corey Day, who entered third in the standings 23 points behind Allgaier, crashed on Lap 9 and went to the garage. Day returned to the race but wound up finishing 34th, dooming his championship hopes.
