Michael McDowell Takes the Pole for Playoff Race At Talladega

McDowell bettered playoff driver Chase Briscoe by 0.19 seconds for his second pole of the season. "We’ve worked really hard to find some speed, everybody at Hendrick engine shop as well, just trying to catch up at these superspeedways," said the Spire driver. Kyle Busch, Ryan Preece, and Josh Berry (all non-playoff drivers) round out the top five.
