Just ahead of qualifying, teams rolled to the track from a brief 20 minute practice session. Kyle Larson spun during practice, narrowly avoiding contact with the wall.
Chase Briscoe won the practice session with a laptime of 2:14.663.
The field is split into two groups for qualifying. The top 5 from each group advance into the final round and run for the pole.
Ross Chastain changed a brake rotor between qualifying runs. The rotor was suffering from tiny cracks due to overheating and cooling them too fast. Kyle Larson and William Byron both had the same issue. NASCAR is allowing teams to change the rotor without a penalty, it’s a safety issue.
Additionally, Kyle Busch is changing an engine after qualifying. He’ll be sent to the tail of the field for Sunday’s race.
