Weather washes away Cup Series qualifying at EchoPark; Tyler Reddick on pole

NASCAR Cup Series qualifying at EchoPark Speedway near Atlanta was canceled Saturday due to inclement weather. With no time trials, Daytona 500 winner Tyler Reddick will start first in Sunday's Autotrader 400 (3 p.m. ET, FOX, HBO Max, PRN Radio, SiriusXM NASCAR Radio) with the lineup set according to the NASCAR Rule Book. His No. 45 23XI Racing Toyota will be flanked on the front row by the No. 22 Team Penske Ford of Joey Logano, a two-time winner at the 1.54-mile track. RELATED: Sunday's starting lineup | Live weather updates Steady mid-morning rain mixed with lightning placed on-track activity on hold. Saturday's schedule included a pair of races for the other two NASCAR national series -- the Fr8 Racing 208 for the Craftsman Truck Series and the Bennett Transportation & Logistics 250 for the O'Reilly Auto Parts Series. Track-drying efforts caused a slight delay to the Truck Series event, which went green approximately an hour late and was shortened 10 laps due to time constraints. Kyle Busch won the event in a 1-2 finish with Carson Hocevar for Spire Motorsports, while Sheldon Creed earned his first O'Reilly Auto Part Series victory later in the day. Saturday's weather forced the first cancellation of Cup Series qualifying at EchoPark since 2008.
