Cup Series qualifying is on hold at Iowa Speedway due to…

NEWTON, Iowa — Inclement weather has put Saturday’s on-track activity on hold at Iowa Speedway.

The NASCAR Cup Series was due to qualify for the Iowa Corn 350 at 1:05 p.m. ET for its maiden race at the 0.875-mile oval when rain overtook the track.

Additionally, the NASCAR Xfinity Series had its qualifying session canceled for the Hy-Vee Perks 250 earlier in the day.

Iowa Goodyear has brought wet-weather tires to Iowa for both series, but NASCAR competition officials deemed the track too wet to hold time trials on Saturday afternoon.

Saturday’s Xfinity Series race is scheduled to get underway at 3:30 p.m. ET on USA Network, MRN Radio, NBC Sports App and SiriusXM NASCAR Radio. The inaugural Cup race at Iowa is set for Sunday night at 7 p.m. ET (USA, MRN, NBC Sports App, SiriusXM).
