POMONA, Calif. (AP) — Funny Car points leader Matt Hagan took the provisional No. 1 qualifying position in the season-ending Automobile Club of Southern California NHRA Finals, earning three bonus points with a blistering 4.139-second pass at 293.86 mph Thursday.

Hagan extended his lead over second-place John Force to 40 points. If Hagan, who holds the tiebreaker over Force, maintains that margin throughout qualifying, Force would have to win three more rounds Sunday to win the season championship.

Larry Dixon (Top Fuel), Jason Line (Pro Stock) and Hector Arana (Pro Stock Motorcycle) also led their divisions.
