The Team Penske No. 12 is at it again at Watkins Glen International.

Kyle Larson will start third ahead of Paul Menard and Brad Keselowski the top five.

With Erik Jones sixth, Justin Allgaier was again the quickest series regular in seventh followed by Daniel Hemric, Cole Custer and Kevin Harvick.

Elliott Sadler struggled in the session, turning a 1:02.911 toward a 20th-place effort. William Byron, 15th, joins Sadler in mid-pack for the 82-lap race.
