DOVER, Del. — Rain has postponed the NASCAR Cup Series race scheduled for Sunday at Dover Motor Speedway until Monday.

The race will start at noon ET at the Monster Mile.

This is the second straight year Dover’s only Cup race was postponed because of rain. Dover will hold a Monday race for the fifth time in 105 career Cup races. Martin Truex Jr. has won twice at Dover on Mondays.

Kyle Busch starts on the pole Monday, and Joe Gibbs Racing driver Christopher Bell joins him on the first row. Ford drivers benefited from the rain, with Ryan Blaney starting third, followed by Brad Keselowski, Chris Buescher and Chase Briscoe.

Busch, enjoying a successful first season with Richard Childress Racing, won last week’s race at Talladega Superspeedway.
