Rain Cancels Cup Qualifying

Due to rain at the Kentucky Speedway, NASCAR has announced that  qualifying has been cancelled. The field will be set by the rule book. Owner points will determine the starting lineup.

Once the track is dry, Sprint Cup teams will practice until 4:25 pm. Xfinity Series teams will qualify at 4:45. Final Sprint Cup practice will be from 6:30 to 7:30 pm. 

Kevin Harvick will start from the pole. Brad Keselowski will start second, followed by, Kurt Busch, Joey Logano, and Carl Edwards round out the top-five. 

NASCAR has opted to give teams more practice time on the newly repaved and reconfigured Kentucky Speedway. It will take NASCAR less than 90 minutes to dry the track.
