Gracias a su vuelta de 49.160 marcado en su segunda vuelta, Gordon obtuvo su pole 80 de por vida y la tercera en lo que ve la temporada 2015. Su coequiero en el HMS, Kasey Kahne, quedó segundo.
"Los autos de Hendrick están muy fuertes," aseveró Kahne. "Sus motores están desarrollándose de forma muy buena."
Los cuatro pilotos de Hendrick (Gordon, Kahne, Dale Earnhardt Jr. y Jimmie Johnson) se colocaron dentro de los primeros 12 puestos para avanzar a a segunda ronda de la calificación y al final de la jornada estaban como los mejores cinco, pues Earnhardt subió al cuarto y Johnson al quinto.
