Grid briefing

Sheldon Creed leads the NASCAR O'Reilly Auto Parts Series at Miami starting lineup

How the front row was set

The starting order below is supplied by NASCAR. Cars sent to the rear can keep their listed starting position for scoring; check the race-day notes below.

What track position means at Homestead-Miami Speedway

Homestead is a progressive-banked 1.5-mile oval where the fastest lane migrates toward the wall as tires wear.

NASCAR O'Reilly Auto Parts Series at Miami grid watch

The O'Reilly field mixes developing drivers with experienced regulars, so adaptation can reshape the order quickly. Watch contenders search for grooves, save the right rear and manage green-flag stops. The 2026 Chase has no eliminations, but every point carries to the finale after the one-time reseed. For this event, the season role is the O'Reilly championship finale.

Starting-order facts checked against NASCAR official race data. A post-qualifying inspection or unapproved adjustment can still send a car to the rear without changing its scored starting position.
