Qualifying occurred in groups after a couple quick practice sessions in the one-day format of the event.

20 cars locked into the 200-lap Clash field, with the remainder sorted into the last-chance qualifier later in the day. Alex Bowman did not qualify into the top 20, but is guaranteed a spot in the Clash via the 2025 points provisional if he doesn’t finish in the top two of the LCQ.

Here’s the full starting lineup for Wednesday’s NASCAR Clash.
