Time: 2:50 p.m. ET
TV channel: FS1
Live stream: FS1, Fox Sports App

The Las Vegas Motor Speedway will utilize the single-lap qualifying format. The field will be split into two qualifying groups, and each will get a 15-minute warm-up/practice round. Then, the drivers in Group A will run a single-car, one-lap qualifier and the five fastest drivers will advance to the final round of qualifying. This process will be repeated with the drivers in Group B and its five fastest drivers also advancing to the final round.

The 10 remaining drivers will run a new, single-car, one-lap qualifier to determine the first five rows of Sunday’s starting grid. The fastest driver in the final round will earn pole position. The drivers that didn’t advance to the final round from Group A will be assigned an even-numbered starting position, while drivers that didn’t qualify from Group B will be assigned an odd-numbered starting position. This is a new rule for the 2024 season.
