Talladega Might Be Kevin Harvick's Last Chance for Victory
1 year agoIf Kevin Harvick is going to win in his final season, tomorrow's YellaWood 500 may be his last great shot. The Fords have had a massive advantage in the drafting races this year as Ford drivers have led the most laps in all five drafting races this season including leading over half the laps in four of them. Moreover, Harvick's teammates Aric Almirola and Chase Briscoe both won the pole and led the most laps in the last two drafting races despite having otherwise mediocre seasons. Since Harvick is clearly better than any of his Stewart-Haas teammates, this gives him a great shot to have a great run but admittedly other Ford teams seem to have better strategy. That said, Sunday may be his best shot at victory.
