The NASCAR weekend at Kansas Speedway has barely gotten underway, and we have already had a very important session canceled.
Practice and qualifying in the O’Reilly Auto Parts Series were set to take place today, Friday, April 17, but it has now been confirmed that it is off.
In an official announcement, NASCAR wrote on X: “UPDATE: Due to weather in the area, O’Reilly Auto Parts Series practice and qualifying have been cancelled. The lineup will be set per the rule book.”
That means that Carson Kvapil will now start Saturday’s race (7pm ET, CW) from pole position in his No. 1 Chevrolet, with Cup star William Byron alongside him on the front row in the No. 88 Chevrolet.
Let’s take a look at the full starting lineup for Saturday’s race, below!
