19659001 The NASCAR Cup Series heads south for its 5th race of the 2023 routine season, the Ambetter Health 400 at Atlanta Motor Speedway. 19659002 Atlanta has actually shown to be a releasing pad for a few of the very best chauffeurs in NASCAR, both previous and present. It appears it is a location where stars are born. William Byron caught his 2nd Cup Series checkered flag at Atlanta in 2015. He has actually continued to illuminate the circuit, and he heads into this weekend’s race with back-to-back wins at Las Vegas and Phoenix.

Will Byron win? That’s anyone’s guess. A much better predictor of success: the outcomes of Saturday’s certifying, which will identify who is the pole caretaker for Sunday’s race.

Who won the pole for the Ambetter Health 400 in 2023? 19659010 Joey Logano caught the pole in Saturday’s last certifying round, blazing around the track at a typical speed of 177.734 miles per hour. This is his 28th profession pole, his second of the season and his 2nd at Atlanta. His very first pole at the track can be found in 2015. The leading 8 areas in the field belong by Ford cars and trucks: 3 each from Team Penske and Stewart-Haas Racing and 2 from RFK Racing. “I’m hoping it’s transferable to the race,” 19459010 Logano stated, per NASCAR.com 19459007 “I believe it’s quite apparent at this moment throughout the field where particular producers have actually discussed the offseason with a few of their modifications to the noses and whatnot. It’s quite apparent that this is sort of our wheelhouse– when you pertain to superspeedways or larger race course like Fontana, Michigan, Atlanta, Talladega, Daytona. I believe those will most likely be our greatest race course and it sort of revealed once again today.” Ambetter Health 400 starting lineup 2023 Group Penske chauffeurs Joey Logano and Austin Cindric will be on the front row for Sunday’s race, based upon certifying outcomes. Fellow Penske motorist Ryan Blaney certified 3rd for the race. Josh Berry will repeat his function in the Hendrick Motorsports No. 9 automobile, when again changing Chase Elliott, who is recuperating from surgical treatment to fix a leg injury he suffered in a snowboarding mishap in Colorado.
