(nascar.com) Clint Bowyer won the pole position for Sunday’s Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series Playoff opener at Las Vegas Motor Speedway.
It is only the third pole position he has earned in 14 years of full-time Cup Series competition and the first, coincidentally, since this same date – Sept. 14– at New Hampshire Motor Speedway in 2007, a race he won. There have been 431 races since his last pole.
Stewart Haas teammates Danile Suarez will start 2nd, Kevin Harvick 3rd and Aric Almirola will start 4th.
