Tyler Reddick Leads the Field at New Hampshire
The margins near the top underline just how tight Saturday’s session was.
Only 0.027 seconds separated Reddick from Hamlin in fourth, while less than two-tenths of a second covered the first 14 drivers.
Reddick now owns the best possible starting position for Sunday’s 301-lap race at the 1.058-mile New Hampshire oval, but Berry will have an immediate opportunity to challenge from the outside of the front row.
Sunday’s Dollar Tree 301 is scheduled for 2 p.m. ET, with coverage on USA Network and HBO Max.
