Denny Hamlin snapped a 24-race ꦦpole drought for Joe Gibbs Racing and Toyota to claim the pole for the Bass Pro Shops NRA Night Race at the Bristol Motor Speedway.

Hamlin besieged the Chip Ganassi Racing entry of Kyle Larson for the top spot. Larson himself had🦹 just bumped Hamlin’s JGR teammate Marti✤n Truex, Jr. off the top spot by a scant .001 of a second with a lap of 14.874 seconds.

Hamlin responded by lapping the .533 of a mile oval🅘 in of 14.848 seconds – .026s ahead of Larson’s Chip 💞Ganassi Racing Chevrolet.

The driver of the No. 11 FedEx Toyota Camry was over the moon to have snapped the pole drought for the four-car team and continue his hot♐ streak of five straight top-five finishes.

“We’ve lived it for sure,” said Hamlin. “Proud of this whole FedEx team, these guys are on it right now. Steadily trying to learn every week and do everything I can to get better, and the🌄 results are showing it.

“It’s week to week, though, and you’re only as go𒁃od as your last race.”

Larson’s performance netted him his second front row start of the year an✨d his third at Bristol.

Tr🍸uex, Jr. ended up third ahead of Larson’s six-time Bristol winning teammate Kurt Busch while Aric Almirola rounded out the top five as the q🍸uickest Ford.

Spr🙈ing polesittꦑer Chase Elliott ended up sixth while Matt DiBenedetto matched his best start of the year in seventh.

Kevin Harvick will roll off in eighth as E👍rik Jones maღde it three JGR Toyotas in the top ten in ninth while Alex Bowman completed the top ten.

Team Penske had a somewhat disappointing outing as dri🉐vers Joey Logano, Ryan Blaney and Brad Keselowski missed out on𝕴 the top ten and will line up in positions 11-13 respectively.

Nine-time Bristol master Kyle Busch had an even more dismal qualifying run by only mustering the 31st quickest time. The run stands his worst sta༺rting spot at the tra😼ck since 2013 when he started 43rd.
