Loudon, N.H. (June 26, 2009) – Persistent rainfall forced the cancellation of Friday afternoon’s qualifying session at New Hampshire Motor Speedway, setting the field for Sunday’s 301 lap event at the 1.058-mile speedway based on the current Sprint Cup owner points. With the cancellation, Matt Kenseth will start his DEWALT Ford Fusion in 10th position, based on his current standing in the points.
