Brian Vickers Takes The Pole
Wow… Brian Vickers won the pole for Sunday’s 3M Performance 400 at Michigan International Speedway.
“It was there from the first lap, the first turn,” Vickers said after his lap of 188.536 mph put the Red Bull Racing driver on the pole for Sunday’s 3M Performance 400.
After he left Hendrick Motorsports, I never thought we’d see him start from the pole again. Great job Brian!
