In his first official qualifying session with Joe Gibbs Racing, Chase Briscoe made an announcement.
Briscoe received the pole for Sunday’s Daytona 500 with a lap of 49.249 seconds, beating Austin Cindric for the highest spot. The pole is the third of Briscoe’s Cup Collection profession and his second at Daytona. It is also the primary ever Daytona 500 pole for Toyota.
“It is an effective way to begin our season,” Briscoe advised Fox Sports activities. “Unbelievable method to begin off the yr, unbelievable method to begin off with Toyota. Simply cannot thank Coach (Joe) Gibbs sufficient. The entire offseason, all people advised me the main target was to qualify higher on superspeedways. To return right here with our No. 19 group and sit on the pole on the largest race of the yr is fairly particular.”
