Alex Bowman leads Hendrick 1-2-3 in NASCAR Cup qualifying at Bristol

Alex Bowman topped the speed charts with a 15.142s lap, earning his first pole position of the 2024 season. He beat teammate William Byron by 0.003s, but due to the way the groups are split, another Hendrick driver -- Kyle Larson -- will start on the front row.

"Studied hard and worked hard to come back here and be better," said Bowman, who enters this elimination race 41 points above the cut-line. "We were okay in practice. I feel like I struggled on top of (Turns) 1 and 2 a little, but had a really awesome car in qualifying. Just really proud of everybody at Hendrick Motorsports. They gave me a really fast No. 48 Camaro. That's what mattered today."
