Christopher Bell will start Sunday's Hollywood Casino 400 at Kansas Speedway at the top of the order after securing pole position in qualifying on Saturday afternoon.
The Joe Gibbs Racing driver set the fastest lap time of 30.111secs in his #20 Toyota to take his third consecutive pole at Kansas Speedway, continuing his dominance at the circuit to beat the likes of Ty Gibbs and Kyle Busch, who will start second and third respectively.
Tyler Reddick and Joey Logano rounded out the top five, with the top 10 hosting a number of other playoff stars, too.
Heading into the weekend, Kyle Larson sat top of the playoff standings after his dominant victory at Bristol last Saturday, but could only qualify 11th in Kansas City this afternoon.
Disastrously for another playoff contender Chase Elliot, he will start Sunday's race at the back of the order after an engine issue in practice.
