Rain pushed back the start of the Great American Getaway 400 at Pocono Raceway, delaying the green flag to 1:00 p.m. Eastern Time.
Denny Hamlin secured pole position, with Kyle Larson joining him on the front row, setting the stage for a fierce battle on the 2.5‑mile triangle.
A Rain‑Soaked Start
Pocono Raceway is known for its tight, hard‑to‑pass layout, making clean air a critical advantage for drivers hoping to avoid traffic.
During qualifying, Carson Hocevar spun out but still managed to qualify within the top 25, while Bubba Wallace’s spin left his car heavily damaged and he was unable to post a qualifying time.
NASCAR officials confirmed the revised schedule and said the race will go ahead once the track dries sufficiently, promising a compact but intense competition.
Fans and teams alike will be watching closely to see how the weather delay influences strategy, especially for those starting at the front of the grid.
