After serving a 30-minute penalty, Kahne went to the top of the leaderboard at 191.222 mph. He was followed by his Hendrick Motorsports teammate Dale Earnhardt Jr. at 191.069 mph. Earnhardt also served a 30-minute practice hold following inspection issues the last few weeks.

The rest of the top five on the speed charts were Kurt Busch (190.257 mph), Trevor Bayne (190.102 mph) and Chase Elliott (189.729 mph).
