Atlanta Motor Speedway is scheduled to give the NASCAR Cup Series back-to-back superspeedway races to open up the season for the second year in a row.
Atlanta, which was repaved and reconfigured into a "mini" superspeedway after the 2021 season, has produced the type of racing typically seen at Daytona International Speedway and Talladega Superspeedway, despite being 1.54 miles in length. Daytona checks in at 2.5, while Talladega is the sport's longest oval at 2.66.
Because the four-turn, 1.54-mile (2.478-kilometer) high-banked Hampton, Georgia oval is considered a superspeedway, group qualifying is not used; all 39 drivers on the entry list are grouped together.
The qualifying order (see here) was determined by the usual four-variable metric (detailed here), and the top 10 drivers in the first round of the single-car qualifying session advance to the second round shootout for the pole position.
Follow along with our live qualifying updates from Atlanta.
