Tyler Reddick had an incredible day at Las Vegas Motor Speedway, capping it off by earning pole position for tomorrow's race. The driver of the No. 8 Chevrolet put down a blistering lap of 29.252 seconds in the final round. This is the third pole of the season for Reddick, who also has three wins this year.
Earlier today, it was announced that Kurt Busch will not race again this season, and that his days as a full-time driver are done as he continues to recover from his concussion. That opened the door for Reddick to secure a buyout with Richard Childress Racing, as he will slide into the No. 45 Toyota for 23XI Racing a year earlier than planned.
Only four of the eight playoff drivers advanced to the final round of qualifying, with William Byron (3rd) fastest among them. Penske teammates Ryan Blaney and Joey Logano qualified 4th and 5th with Christopher Bell lining up in 7th position. The third Penske driver, Austin Cindric, just narrowly missed the top spot and will start alongside Reddick on the front row.
Like Cindric, Daniel Suarez was eliminated from the playoffs last weekend in Charlotte. The Trackhouse Racing driver starts 6th tomorrow, and his teammate Ross Chastain just missed advancing and will start 11th as he continues to fight for a championship. Rookie Harrison Burton, Bubba Wallace, and Austin Dillon rounded out the top-ten in qualifying.
The remaining three playoff drivers did not have a good run today and will need to make up some ground in the race. Chase Briscoe starts 16th, while points leader Chase Elliott rolls off in 20th. Denny Hamlin had a moment during his run and will start back in 31st position tomorrow.
