This is the tenth time Briscoe has started a race from the front row this year, and his seventh pole position of 2025, giving Chase Briscoe the job of leading the NASCAR Cup Series field to the green flag. The No. 19 Joe Gibbs Racing Toyota was the only car to run a lap in under 30 seconds, securing pole with a 29.987s run. This was crucial for Briscoe, who enters this race on the cutline and just 12 points above the cutline.
"I was just telling the guys, it feels like forever since we've been on the pole," said Briscoe. "Glad to get back to our normal form, truthfully. Just a great day. Went fishing this morning with Johnny Morris (Bass Pro Shops CE0) and JP Morris and catching all kinds of big bass, and then capping it off with the pole here at what is really their home race. Just super excited for what we have tomorrow. I felt like our car was pretty fast in practice too. Hopefully, we can keep this Toyota up front. It would be nice to win and not have to deal with all the chaos of the Roval next week."
