Martin Truex Jr. Wins Pole for Final NASCAR Race

News summary

Martin Truex Jr. secured the pole position for his final NASCAR Cup Series race at Phoenix Raceway with a lap of 26.718 seconds, marking his 25th career pole and second consecutive one. Truex, a former Cup Series champion, is set to retire from full-time racing after the season, aiming for one last victory after a winless 2024 season. He will start alongside championship contender Joey Logano, who qualified second, despite facing technical inspection issues that affected his pit stall selection. Ross Chastain qualified third, with Kyle Larson and Chase Elliott rounding out the top five. Meanwhile, reigning champion Ryan Blaney struggled, qualifying 17th and being the only Championship 4 driver outside the top 10. The qualifying session was challenging, with many drivers experiencing difficulties in turn 1, notably Josh Berry, who spun and hit the wall during his run.
