His regular season consisted of 12 top-10 finishes, six top fives and no victories through 26 races. After two consecutive weeks of trials to begin the Round of 16, Harvick was seven points above the cutline entering Saturday’s cutoff race at Bristol (Tenn.) Motor Speedway. “You go race as hard as you can and where it falls it falls. It was Harvick’s worst finish at the Last Great Colosseum since the fall of 2019, when he wound up 39th with a clutch issue. While his title hopes are dashed, Harvick has seven races left in the season to soak up a career that’s lasted 23 seasons.
