Kentucky Xfinity race postponed to Saturday

Severe thunderstorms have forced NASCAR to postpone Friday night's Xfinity Series race until noon ET Saturday. Kyle Busch will start from the pole in both the Xfinity and Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series race on Saturday night. The race will air on NBCSN.

The looming weather system, which included lightning, cut short Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series qualifying after the second round of knockout qualifying. Busch was atop the leaderboard when NASCAR made the decision to cancel the rest of the session for safety reasons.
