On Saturday morning, the NASCAR Cup Series held the qualifying session for this weekend's Ambetter Health 400 at Atlanta Motor Speedway.
The qualifying session consisted of two rounds. All 39 cars in the field attempted a lap in the first round, and from there, the 10 fastest drivers in round one advanced to the second and final round. Those drivers then made a second lap and that determined the starting positions first through 10th. The 11th through 39th starting positions were set based on speed in the first round among the drivers that didn't advance.
The 10 drivers that were fastest in round one that advanced to the final round of qualifying were: Joey Logano, Ryan Blaney, Austin Cindric, Josh Berry, Todd Gilliland, Zane Smith, Kyle Busch, Brad Keselowski, Noah Gragson, and Chris Buescher.
