Kevin Harvick has two wins at Darlington this season. |
Kevin Harvick won again Sunday at Darlington Raceway (+335 payout at Circa Sports) to grab his season-leading eighth victory of the season while also winning the first race of the Playoffs. It gives him an automatic berth into the next round that begins with the South Point 400 at Las Vegas Motor Speedway three weeks from now.
Two more races to go for 15 other championship-eligible drivers looking to advance and their next quest is Saturday’s Federated Auto Parts 400 at Richmond Raceway in what will be the first race of 2020 at the ¾-mile layout that annually happens in April or early May. The April 19 date originally scheduled for this season was canceled for obvious reasons.
So this is it. The only race at Richmond. It’s the first time there haven’t been two annual dates there since 1958. I miss it. But I feel like I’ve already seen a preview of the races because of events at the Phoenix race on March 8 and New Hampshire Motor Speedway on Aug 2. They are both flat 1-mile tracks that run similar to Richmond. Traditionally, if a driver does well on one, they’ll do well on the other two. Joey Logano won at Phoenix and Brad Keselowski won at New Hampshire, two Penske Fords, which is something to briefly think about before betting.
This week’s race package is the one with 750 horsepower that has been in eight races this season, including the non-points All-Star Race at Bristol. Keselowski and Chase Elliott have each won twice with it and it wasn’t until the Dover doubleheader that the season’s dominators Harvick and Denny Hamlin won with it, the two drivers that have combined to win 14 of the 27 races overall in 2020.
