Kevin Harvick wins Richmond, his second straight victory.
Two weeks ago, Kevin Harvick was out of the playoffs. He had run a strong season, in the top ten throughout the year, but 14 race winners and his position as third in points among winless drivers left him effectively eliminated without a win in the closing races anyway. He changed that with a win at Michigan last weekend, but he wants to fight for a championship, and more wins bring more playoff points. This week, he helped his cause.
With 10 to go, Bell caught Buescher. It took a little bit longer to get past than he'd like, but Bell was chasing Harvick with 4 to go. On the final lap, he reached Harvick's bumper. With another repeat winner, NASCAR is still successfully avoiding a chaos scenario where more than 16 drivers win a race in the regular season and a race winner is eliminated from postseason contention. A new winner at Watkins Glen would change that, instantly eliminating all chances for a driver to make the playoffs on points and putting the injured Kurt Busch at risk of losing his playoff spot with a 17th new winner at Daytona.
