Carson Hocevar of Spire Motorsports will lead the NASCAR Cup Series field to green on Sunday at Texas Motor Speedway.

Hocevar will be joined on the front row by William Byron of Hendrick Motorsports, who scored his seventh top-10 start of 2025 and his fifth in 11 races at Texas. Austin Cindric of Team Penske, fresh off his Talladega win, Kyle Larson of Hendrick Motorsports and Michael McDowell of Spire will join in the starting top-5.
The Würth 400 presented by LIQUI MOLY takes the green flag at 3:30 p.m. ET and will air on FS1, the Performance Racing Network and SiriusXM NASCAR Radio.
