The Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series qualified at Michigan and this hometown driver showed some great speed.
Brad Keselowski has won the Busch pole for the Consumers Energy 400 in the 2 Discount Tire Ford Mustang for Team Penske. This is his 16th pole of his career as well as his second pole of the season and at Michigan. Keselowski finished sixth here in June, and is looking to get his first win at his home track. His best finish is twice second back in August of 2012 and August of 2018.
The Consumers Energy 400 is Sunday at 3:00 PM ET on NBC Sports Network. We will see if Keselowski will pull through or if Kevin Harvick will defend his August victory.
