Tyler Reddick of 23XI Racing claims pole position for Sunday’s Cup Series race at Darlington Raceway with a blistering lap of 169.152 mph. The Daytona 500 champion achieves his 13th career pole despite brushing the wall while battling a new, challenging car package. Reddick acknowledges the difficulty, stating, "I kind of knew I was in trouble about a third of the way through." Teammate Bubba Wallace qualifies second at 168.434 mph, marking a remarkable 1-2 sweep for the team co-owned by Michael Jordan. Both drivers rank 1-2 in the points standings after five races. Wallace dedicates his effort to his newborn daughter, born Thursday. Chase Elliott faces setbacks with his No. 9 Chevrolet, failing inspection twice and losing pit selection. Kyle Larson and Brad Keselowski complete the top five, while Chris Buescher's No. 17 Ford also fails inspection, costing him his car chief and pit selection.
