Carson Hocevar used a late qualifying run to knock Tyler Reddick out of the No. 1 spot, then survived a late charge from Daniel Suarez to capture his first Brickyard 400 pole. Hocevar drives for Spire Motorsports and produced a fast lap of 186.598 mph. Suarez soon followed with a lap of 186.382 to give Chevrolet the top two starting spots on the 39-car starting grid. Reddick will start third in Sunday’s race on Indianapolis Motor Speedway’s historic 2.5-mile oval. Defending champion Bubba Wallace starts 29th. Denny Hamlin qualified fifth as he tries win his first Brickyard to complete the final leg of NASCAR's crown jewel races.
