Kyle Busch and Kevin Harvick to start on front row after Dover qualifying rained out
The Dover starting lineup will be set by points after qualifying was rained out Friday.
That means the 12 remaining playoff drivers will start in the first 12 positions for Sunday’s race. Kyle Busch will start first and Kevin Harvick will start alongside him in second. Martin Truex Jr. starts third. The three drivers (Harvick, Truex and Busch) have won each of the last three playoff races at Dover. They’re also three of the last four Cup Series champions.
