NASCAR has canceled qualifying for the FireKeepers Casino 400 at Michigan International Speedway after poor weather conditions hit the circuit.

The announcement that qualifying would not take place was made via NASCAR's social media channels, with the final practice session in Michigan also halted.

The rain had affected approximately half of the practice session and with a huge storm approaching, NASCAR decided to cancel qualifying, which was scheduled to take place shortly after.

With cars now unable to compete for their starting spot, NASCAR has confirmed that the order for Sunday's race will be set as per the rule book, which means that the lineup will now be based on NASCAR Performance Metric Values.

NASCAR has confirmed that Joe Gibbs Racing's Denny Hamlin will start at the front of the order for tomorrow's race, with the rest of the order listed below.
