This track uses the road course qualifying format. There will be a 20-minute warm-up/practice session for all cars, split into two groups. The drivers in Group A will have 15 minutes to set the fastest lap they can. They can go around the track as many times as they want in the allotted time as long as they start their lap before the timer runs out. The five fastest drivers will advance to the final round of qualifying.
This process is then repeated with the drivers in Group B. They will have 15 minutes to set their fastest time. Their five fastest drivers will advance to the final round of qualifying. The 10 remaining drivers will have 10 more minutes to set a new fastest time. The starting lineup will be determined as the fastest driver earns the pole for Saturday afternoon’s race.
