NASCAR qualifying order for Cup Series at Pocono in June 2026

The NASCAR Cup Series is set to arrive at Pocono Raceway for its 16th race of the 2026 season. It is the only date in Pocono, as NASCAR visits the venue once per season. In 2025, Denny Hamlin won the pole for the Cup Series race at Pocono, marking his first of five pole positions during the season.

First, the Cup Series needs to qualify for the event in Pocono, and the qualifying format is simple. Every driver will make a one-lap run, with the overall lap times determining the starting lineup. There will only be one round, and the groups do not matter in setting the starting lineup by the inside or outside rows. The metric system determines the qualifying order.

Below, you can check out the NASCAR qualifying order and groups for the 2026 Great American Getaway 400 at Pocono Raceway this weekend!
