Busch captured the pole position on Friday with a qualifying speed of 185.142 mph for his 17th career pole and first of 2015. It’s his fourth pole in Fontana, more than any other active driver. Busch will begin the race just ahead of the red-hot Kevin Harvick, winner of the last two races.
Harvick has finished second in the two races he hasn’t won this season. The only other two drivers with top-10 finishes in all four NASCAR Sprint Cup races to date this year are Martin Truex, Jr. and Joey Logano, starting in 12th and 13th positions respectively on Sunday.
