Denny Hamlin on pole for Nashville Cup race

Rain washed out qualifying for the Nashville Cup race, forcing NASCAR to set the starting lineup by points standings. Hamlin, who finished second in the Coca-Cola 600 and sits second in points, will lead the field to the green flag.

Hamlin will share the front row with championship leader Tyler Reddick. The race comes on the heels of Daniel Suarez's shock win in the previous NASCAR event. chickenroadslot.lat
