The excitement at Charlotte Motor Speedway is palpable as the NASCAR drivers battle it out for the top spot in Sunday’s Coca-Cola 600. Ty Gibbs secured his first career pole position with a blistering lap of 183.955 mph, leaving the rest of the field in his wake. William Byron came in second place with a lap of 183.58 mph, followed by Christopher Bell, Martin Truex Jr., and Chase Elliott.
Fans will be on the edge of their seats as Alex Bowman, Ross Chastain, Tyler Reddick, Michael McDowell, and Kyle Larson all made it to the second round of qualifying. However, Tyler Reddick will start from the rear of the field due to unapproved adjustments made by his crew to the underwing of his Toyota after tech inspection. He will have to serve a pass-through penalty at the start of the race.
Meanwhile, tensions are high between Cole Custer and Austin Hill after their heated Xfinity race on Saturday. The drama continues to build as Chris Buescher was unable to take a qualifying lap after crashing during practice and will have to go to a backup car for Sunday’s race.
