Kyle Busch is on the pole for Sunday's MyAFibStory.com 400 at Chicagoland Speedway, the first race in the 10-race Chase for the NASCAR Sprint Cup, after inclement weather forced the cancellation of Friday's qualifying. Busch got the pole based on his speed in practice.

This year, 16 drivers will compete in the Chase, with three rounds of eliminations cutting the field to a final four drivers competing for the championship in the season finale at Homestead-Miami.

You can watch Sunday's race at 2 p.m. ET on ESPN. Will it be Jimmie Johnson winning a seventh title? Will Jeff Gordon win his fifth? We'll find out who gets off to the best start on Sunday.
