Tyler Reddick put his car on pole position for Sunday's Brickyard 400 at Indianapolis, setting the fastest time of the day in his final run.
The #45 Toyota set a time of 49.469sec (181.932mph) around the 2.5 mile oval track, just 0.035sec faster than NASCAR Cup points leader Chase Elliott's 49.504sec run.
Reddick had also been fastest in Friday's practice session, and is having a strong season overall – sitting just 15 points behind Elliott in the standings, currently occupying third place.
The championship's top five took all five of the top positions in the starting order, with Denny Hamlin third, Kyle Larson fourth and William Byron fifth for Sunday's 160-lap race.
Speaking after the session, Reddick said: “Qualifying today seemed a little sketchy for all the Cup drivers, so I just tried to be mindful of that. But I knew what my lap time was. It’s just really cool. I’ve always been on the other end of this. It’s nice to be on the inside for once. It’s a big deal for us.”
