Fast Feeney first for Supercars qualifying in Perth
Triple Eight star Broc Feeney is primed to claim back-to-back wins in Perth after snatching provisional pole.
Supercars championship leader Feeney blitzed the pack by 0.0328 seconds and will be the final driver to have a solo attempt at Wanneroo Raceway in the deciding top-10 shootout on Sunday.
Feeney clocked a lap time of 53.8300 seconds, with Team 18 driver David Reynolds second fastest.
Grove Racing youngster Matt Payne was third, while reigning champion Will Brown also made the shootout in fourth.
Ryan Wood recovered from an early error in the first of two portions of qualifying to be sixth fastest.
The Walkinshaw Andretti United youngster had locked up his front wheels and ventured into the sand at turn seven.
On Saturday, Wood broke through for an emotional maiden Supercars win, before a suspension failure ended his bid for back-to-back victories.
Meanwhile, Wood's teammate Chaz Mostert will struggle to back up his podium efforts after qualifying in 14th.
Mostert finished third in the opening two sprints.
"One day, you're right smack bang in the middle and you're happy as, and one day you're just a little bit out of it," he said.
"Not really sure what to think about that."
Local product Brodie Kostecki's hopes for a home race victory were dashed when a poor qualifying effort condemned him to 15th.
Kostecki finished the two opening sprints in Perth in fifth and seventh.
Drivers return for the top-10 shootout at 3.05pm (AEST), before the final sprint in Perth at 5.15pm.

Arena falls silent as NBA superstar Tyrese Haliburton goes down in championship finale
Indiana Pacers star Tyrese Haliburton has gone down injured just minutes into the NBA championship finale on Sunday local time (Monday AEST). The point guard has battled a calf injury through the back half of the Finals but was on fire early in Game 7, hitting three three-pointers in the first quarter — only for his series to come to a swift end when he went down without contact. WATCH THE VIDEO ABOVE: Arena falls silent as NBA superstar goes down in championship finale. Haliburton, immediately in tears, punched the floor in frustration while his high-profile father was also emotional in the stands. Oklahoma City Thunder's MVP Shai Gilgeous-Alexander was among the players to check on Haliburton. Haliburton was helped off the court with a towel draped over his head. The Pacers quickly confirmed he was out for the remainder of the game without a formal diagnosis. Haliburton's father later told ESPN it was an Achilles injury. 'It's heartbreaking,' teammate Myles Turner said after the first quarter. 'It's unfortunate in the biggest game of the year that it (his leg) didn't hold out for him. We've got his back and that's what it's all about, next-man-up menality. 'Keep him in your mind, keep him in your heart, go win it for him.' Haliburton was responsible for game-winners in multiple comebacks on the Pacers' playoff run, including in the opening game of the Finals. Indiana will lean on Pascal Siakam, who won the 2019 title with the Toronto Raptors, for the rest of the game while backup TJ McConnell will also take on a larger role. Meanwhile, confirmed ruptured Achilles would make Haliburton the third star to suffer the injury in the playoffs. Milwaukee Bucks veteran Damian Lillard went down in the first round while Boston Celtics champion Jayson Tatum suffered the blow in the Eastern Conference semi-finals.
