Busch on pole for NASCAR's longest race of the season - Sportsnet.ca

The Sunday before Memorial Day is a supposed to be a smorgasbord of motorsports that begins with Formula One at the Monaco Grand Prix, then IndyCar and the Indianapolis 500, followed by NASCAR and its longest race on the calendar.

Team owner Chip Ganassi would have been at Indy early Sunday celebrating his 62nd birthday at the 500 before jetting to Charlotte Motor Speedway to watch his two NASCAR teams. Instead, the owner watched on television from his home in Pittsburgh as Busch ran a lap at 181.269 mph to earn his first pole of the season and third top-10 start of 2020.

Tyler Reddick was fifth for Richard Childress Racing, one spot ahead of teammate Austin Dillon as Chevrolet drivers took the top six spots in qualifying. Charlotte Motor Speedway invited team owners to watch the race the race from its 13,000-square foot member’s only restaurant, The Speedway Club. A track spokesman was unaware of any owners accepting the invitation. Most did not attend the first two races back at Darlington Raceway and unless they have a central race-day role, NASCAR has discouraged them from using one of the 16 allotted roster spots per car.
