For NASCAR Xfinity Series qualifying today, any team that does not make a qualifying attempt for the Roseanne 300 (5 p.m. ET, FS1, MRN, SiriusXM NASCAR Radio) will start from the rear of the field and be required to serve a pass-through penalty once the green flag waves, according to a NASCAR spokesperson.

NASCAR Xfinity Series Managing Director Wayne Auton delivered the message to crew chiefs Saturday morning in Fontana, California. Xfinity qualifying is at 1:35 p.m. ET with TV coverage on FS1.
