Perspective
Qualifying was originally scheduled to be held on Friday, July 12, at 2:30 PM EST.[9]
Pocono Raceway is the only oval in the Truck Series with a road course-style rule. While the system is a single-truck system with only one lap, drivers will exit pit lane and run down the Long Pond Straight into Turn 2 before starting their timed lap at the exit to post a qualifying time, and whoever sets the fastest time in that round will win the pole.[10]
Qualifying was cancelled due to inclement weather, with the starting lineup based on the pandemic formula. As a result, Christian Eckes, driving for McAnally-Hilgemann Racing, would start on the pole.[11]
No drivers would fail to qualify.
