Christopher Bell continued his qualifying prowess in the NASCAR Cup playoffs and will start from the pole in Sunday’s race at Las Vegas Motor Speedway.
Bell, the last of the 10 cars to make a qualifying attempt in the final round on Saturday, just edged Kyle Larson with an average lap speed of 186.271 mph. The pole is the sixth of the season for Bell, with four of them now coming in the playoffs. However, he has yet to be able to translate one of them into a victory. A win for Bell in Sunday’s race would lock him into the Championship 4 at Phoenix in two weeks for the second consecutive season.
