Larson On Pole For NASCAR’s Return To Vegas

DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. – Kyle Larson will chase his seventh NASCAR Cup Series victory of the season from the pole during Sunday’s South Point 400 at Las Vegas Motor Speedway.

Larson, who won his first race of the season at Las Vegas Motor Speedway earlier this year, will start on the pole at Las Vegas based on his qualifying metric score following last Saturday’s race at Bristol (Tenn.) Motor Speedway.
