The next round of the NASCAR Xfinity race will kick off at the Las Vegas Motor Speedway. As always, the officials have published the grid lineup ahead of the race weekend. Fresh off his win at Homestead-Miami, Myatt Snider finds himself on pole position ahead of Austin Cindric.
Behind them on the second row are Daniel Hemric and Brandon Jones, with Jeb Burton completing the Top 5. Justin Haley lines up in sixth ahead of Brett Moffitt and Jeremy Clements. Finally, Josh Berry and Justin Allgaier round out the Top 10.

Meanwhile, Noah Gragson and Justin Allgaier will be hugely disappointed to start so low. After being robbed of a win at Homestead-Miami, Gragson is starting all the way down in 34th place. Still, it could be worse, as poor old Allgaier starts 37th, and Tyler Reddick props up the back of the grid.

Myatt Snider currently lies second in the Xfinity Series championship, behind Cindric. So, if the Richard Childress Racing driver can somehow convert pole to victory, he should eat into Cindric’s championship lead. Everything depends on whether Snider can win the race and how low the defending champion finishes on the track.
