Back to 5 drivers missing with 48 entries
Trevor Bayne won't race, but Roush & Wood Bros have elected to run the 21 with Ricky Stenhouse Jr (first Cup attempt). I'm sure they will have a great set up to find the speed to qualify. Then just make laps. So odds are high he will qualify on speed.

Missing the race last year:
32 Reed Sorenson 183.125
13 Max Papis 182.902
26 David Stremme 182.673
09 Mike Bliss 182.469
