Indianapolis Motor Speedway will feature qualifying sessions for the Cup and Xfinity series Saturday, which will be capped with a 100-lap Xfinity race.
It’s the 10th time that Xfinity has raced on the 2.5-mile oval.
Riley Herbst is the defending race winner but won’t be in this year’s field after moving full time to the Cup Series this season.
A 30-minute Cup practice at 2 p.m. ET was added to the Saturday schedule after a 50-minute session Friday was canceled because of rain.
