Martin Truex will lead the field to green on Sunday at Martinsville Speedway.

Playoff drivers who didn’t make the top ten in qualifying included Ryan Blaney (11th), William Byron (16th), Chris Buescher (18th) and Tyler Reddick (19th).
Tyler Reddick, who will start 19th on Sunday spun out during his second lap of qualifying ultimately hurting his lap time. Reddick was able to avoid hitting the wall but will have to start from mid pack on Sunday needing a good run to make the Championship 4 next Sunday at Phoenix Raceway.
Sunday’s NASCAR Cup Series race from Martinsville Speedway is scheduled to begin at 2:07 p.m. Eastern with coverage on NBC and MRN Radio.
