Shane van Gisbergen is on the pole for The Loop 110 NASCAR Xfinity Series race on July 5 at the Chicago street course. SVG, making his first Xfinity start of the season, qualified early in the first group and posted a lap of 1:30.

Fans were back in and around Grant Park on Sunday for another high-octane day of racing. This now marks an end to the final year of the NASCAR contract in Chicago, but there are options included to possibly extend the race to 2026 and 2027.

Since the inaugural event two years ago, the Cup and Xfinity series have been affected by inclement weather. After both series’ races were shortened by thunderstorms in 2023, the Cup Series ended 17 laps short of the full distance last year because of rain delays.
