Raceway Friday evening and no one was happier about the development than 23XI Racing\u2019s Tyler Reddick, who will now lead the field to green in Sunday night\u2019s Chase-opening Cook Out Southern 500 (5 p.m. ET, USA Network, MRN, SiriusXM NASCAR Radio).<\/p>\n<p>This is the eighth time this season the five-race NASCAR Cup Series winner and driver of the No. 45 Toyota will start from the number one position on the grid \u2013 five times through a formal qualifying session and three others as a result of a cancelled session due to weather.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis is literally the best-case scenario for us,\u2019\u2019 said a smiling Reddick, who has now started among the top-10 at every Darlington race throughout his entire four-year career at 23XI Racing.<\/p>\n<p>Reddick led 77 of the 293 laps and won from pole position here in May.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe were so strong here in the Spring,\u201d he said. \u201cIronically enough, as I kind of got going in Cup racing it was during COVID with no practice at all and I got very used to just having to figure it out in the first corner.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSo for me, generally, I feel like we\u2019re in a really good spot most weekends when this happens. But beyond that, as strong as we were, I know teams may want to try thing to close the gap, but no one had that opportunity today so that helps us even more.\u2019\u2019<\/p>\n<p>Reddick will share the front row with fellow title contender Spire Motorsports\u2019 Daniel Su\u00e1rez in the No. 7 Spire Motorsports Chevrolet. Chase drivers, Roush Fenway Keselowski\u2019s Ryan Preece and championship leader Joe Gibbs Racing\u2019s Denny Hamlin, will roll off third and fourth.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Hamlin, whose five Darlington wins is most in the field, won the regular season title and starts the race with a 25-point advantage on the 16-driver championship field.<\/p>\n<p>Spire Motorsports\u2019 Michael McDowell, who is not championship-eligible, will start fifth followed by a pair of Chase drivers, Team Penske\u2019s Austin Cindric and JGR\u2019s Chase Briscoe, who is the two-time defending race winner and the only other multi-time winner among the field.<\/p>\n<p>Three non-Chase drivers \u2013 HYAK Motorsports\u2019 Ricky Stenhouse Jr., Richard Childress Racing\u2019s Austin Dillon, and Hendrick Motorsports&#8217; Alex Bowman round out the top-10 on the grid.<\/p>\n<p>The rain-out metric has made for an interesting challenge for several of the other Chase drivers. JGR\u2019s Christopher Bell starts 11th&nbsp;with Penske\u2019s Joey Logano \u2013 a three-time series champion \u2013 13th&nbsp;on the grid. Reddick\u2019s 23XI Racing teammate Bubba Wallace will start 17th&nbsp;alongside Hendrick Motorsports\u2019 Chase Elliott \u2013 tops on the grid among the three title-chasing Hendrick team Chevrolets.<\/p>\n<p>Hendrick\u2019s William Byron (20th), Penske\u2019s Ryan Blaney (24th), JGR\u2019s Ty Gibbs (28th), Spire\u2019s Carson Hocevar (34th) and RFK\u2019s Chris Buescher (25th) round out the Chase field on the 38-car grid.<\/p>\n<p>Logano, Larson and Byron are all former Darlington race winners.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Interview: Pole Sitter Tyler Reddick (No. 45 23XI Racing Toyota) &#8211;<\/strong><\/p>\n<audio class=\"wp-audio-shortcode\" id=\"audio-60511-1\" preload=\"none\" style=\"width: 100%;\" controls=\"controls\"><source type=\"audio\/mpeg\" src=\"http:\/\/racedaysa.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/TylerReddick.mp3?_=1\" \/><a href=\"http:\/\/racedaysa.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/TylerReddick.mp3\">http:\/\/racedaysa.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/TylerReddick.mp3<\/a><\/audio>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>NASCAR Cup Series Qualifying &#8211; Cook Out Southern 500<\/strong><\/p>\n<div class=\"yiv1104808777elementToProof\"><strong>Darlington Raceway<\/strong><\/div>\n<div class=\"yiv1104808777elementToProof\"><strong>Darlington, South Carolina<\/strong><\/div>\n<div class=\"yiv1104808777elementToProof\"><strong>Saturday, September 5, 2026<\/strong><\/div>\n<div class=\"yiv1104808777elementToProof\">&nbsp;<\/div>\n<div class=\"yiv1104808777elementToProof\">\u2002\u2002\u2002\u2002\u2002\u2002 &nbsp; &nbsp;1.
