NASCAR Cup Series: Full qualifying order revealed for Pocono race

Pocono Raceway has been on the NASCAR Cup Series schedule since 1974, and from 1982 to 2021, it hosted two races each year. However, starting in 2022, the Tricky Triangle has only had one race date on the calendar each season.

This year's race at the three-turn, 2.5-mile (4.023-kilometer) Loval in Long Pond, Pennsylvania is the Great American Getaway 400 presented by VISITPA, and it is scheduled to be a 160-lap race. Joe Gibbs Racing's Denny Hamlin is the reigning race winner.

Though Pocono is the same length as Daytona International Speedway, it is not considered a superspeedway when it comes to the purposes of NASCAR qualifying.

Drivers are set to be split up into two groups. Each driver is set to make a single-lap qualifying attempt, and the orders of both groups were determined by a metric that NASCAR implemented four years ago. An explanation of that formula, which involves four variables, can be found here.

The top five drivers in each group are set to advance to the second round and make another single-lap qualifying attempt to battle for the pole position.
