On Saturday afternoon, the NASCAR Cup Series held the qualifying session for this weekend's Hollywood Casino 400 at Kansas Speedway, the fourth race of this year's postseason and the first one for the Round of 12.
The first round was split into two groups, and the five fastest drivers from each group advanced to the second round. In the second round, the drivers that advanced made a second attempt to determine starting positions first through 10th. From there, the speeds from round one determined the rest of the starting positions, with Group A drivers filling out the outside row with Group B drivers filling out the inside row.
The five fastest drivers that advanced out of the first group were: William Byron, Ty Gibbs, Denny Hamlin, Daniel Suarez, and Tyler Reddick. In the second group, the five fastest advancing were Christopher Bell, Joey Logano, Kyle Busch, Ryan Blaney, and Chase Briscoe.
