NASCAR Cup Series: Full qualifying order revealed for Michigan race

by

As a seasoned NASCAR enthusiast with years of virtual pit-road debriefings and countless late-night rewinds under my belt, I can’t help but feel a mix of anticipation and nostalgia as I gaze upon the qualifying order for this weekend’s FireKeepers Casino 400 at Michigan International Speedway.

Michigan International Speedway previously held two NASCAR Cup Series races annually, however, after the conclusion of the 2020 season, it was left with only one date on the schedule.

As a longtime racing enthusiast who has attended numerous events at tracks across the country, I can confidently say that this upcoming Sunday afternoon’s 200-lap race at the Brooklyn, Michigan oval is one I’m particularly excited for. With its four turns and 2.0-mile (3.219-kilometer) length, this track has always provided some of the most intense and exciting races in the season. This year’s event marks the 24th of 26 races on the 2024 regular season schedule, making it a crucial point for drivers looking to secure their spot in the playoffs. With so much at stake, I can only imagine the adrenaline-pumping action that will unfold as these skilled drivers race around the track in pursuit of victory. Whether you’re a die-hard racing fan or just looking for an exciting day out, this event is not to be missed!

The competition for the final four spots in the playoffs, which requires a win during the regular season, is intensifying as we approach the last three races of the season.

The order for participating in the FireKeepers Casino 400 race is decided based on a four-factor system that NASCAR introduced in 2020. For more details about this system, please refer to this explanation.
