Hopefully we can capitalize,\u201d said Logano, who also won in New Hampshire in 2014.<\/p>Joey Logano<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\nRyan Blaney, teammate, will start second in the No. 12 Ford, meaning Team Penske secured the front row in qualifying for the second time this season. It’s Penske’s 11th pole at New Hampshire.\n\n\n
\u201cI feel good for Sunday. I thought I was close to getting the pole until I looked at the time. What a great lap by Joey and that group. Really cool to have a Penske front row,\u201d commented Blaney, who matched his best starting position at New Hampshire with a lap that was 0.170 seconds off Logano.<\/p>Ryan Blaney<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\nJosh Berry, whose No. 21 Ford of Wood Brothers Racing has a competitive alliance with Penske, qualified third, achieving a recovery after being eliminated with three consecutive last-place finishes in the first round of the playoffs.\n\nTyler Reddick qualified fourth and William Byron was fifth, with the playoff drivers occupying four of the top five starting positions.\n\nAfter sweeping the first round with three consecutive victories, Joe Gibbs Racing struggled on Saturday at a track where it has won three times in a row.\n\nDenny Hamlin was the team’s top qualifier in ninth place, and pre-race favorite Christopher Bell, who has won two of the last three Cup races in New Hampshire, qualified 19th.\n\nThe finishing positions for the remaining playoff drivers are: Ross Chastain in eighth place, Bubba Wallace 14th, Kyle Larson 16th, Chase Briscoe 18th, Austin Cindric 22nd, and Chase Elliott 27th.","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
