Triple Eight young gun Feeney was primed to claim his second win of the season from pole position at Albert Park in Melbourne yesterday before the race was abandoned because of unsafe track conditions.
The 30-minute session started under a safety car and was eventually suspended under a red flag after three laps.
There were vastly different track conditions for the 24-strong Supercars grid, who battled through sweltering heat on Saturday.
Feeney, who was sharing the front row with Matt Stone Racing underdog Cam Hill, could only express his disappointment.
He is third in the series standings behind Tickford rival Cam Waters.
Defending champion Will Brown had surged back to the top of the series standings after leading a one-two finish with team-mate Feeney on Saturday.
"It was certainly my day to try and get some points back on the board," Feeney said.
"The rain got heavy there for a bit. Unfortunately, when they red-flagged and we pulled back into pit lane, the rain stopped.
"I thought maybe if we did another lap under the safety car, we might have been able to get going racing.
"It doesn’t matter what I thought it was — I wanted to go racing today."
Feeney pulled off a sweep of the four pole positions available this weekend, but only converted one into a race win.
Brown, who would have started the race from 21st, was on the other end of the spectrum from his team-mate.
"It was pretty hairy out there," he said.
"When I was at the back, I was just thinking of letting everyone go and see what happens through the high-speed stuff because it was a lot of water across the road."
No points will be awarded to drivers from yesterday’s race, though Brown held on to the Larry Perkins Trophy.
Brown won his first Larry Perkins Trophy — named after the five-time Bathurst winner — last year, awarded to the highest points-scorer of the Albert Park weekend since 2018.
Supercars drivers next take their championship race to Taupo International Motorsport Park next month.
