Thomas Annunziata Earns ARCA Pole at Berlin

Thomas Annunziata will lead the ARCA Menards Series field to the green flag at Berlin Speedway on Saturday (June 20), marking his second career pole and first of the 2026 season.

Annunziata set a lap of 94.408 mph, which narrowly beat out Tyler Lupton for the pole. Lupton, who is making his series debut, will settle for a second-place starting position, sharing the front row with Annunziata.

Max Reaves will start third from the inside of row two, and he’ll have points leader Jake Bollman to his outside at the drop of the green flag.

Taylor Reimer will start fifth, earning her best start of the 2026 season thus far. She’ll share row three with Matt Kemp, who will roll off of the grid in sixth.

The remainder of the top 10 starters include Will Robinson, Jason Kitzmiller, Willie Mullins and Isabella Robusto in seventh through 10th, respectively.

Two drivers, Kevin Campbell and Austin Vaughn, did not take a lap during the allotted session time. They will both start shotgun on the field, 21st and 22nd respectively.

With 22 entrants, everyone will compete in the 200-lap race.
