Kevin Harvick turned in another dominating run at Atlanta Motor Speedway, cruising to victory over Kyle Busch and Martin Truex Jr. in the NASCAR Cup race Sunday.
Competing again in front of empty grandstands, Harvick won for the second time since NASCAR returned from the shutdown caused by the coronavirus pandemic, adding to his emotional victory at Darlington in the first race back.
Harvick came into the day having led 1,138 laps on the 1.54-mile Atlanta trioval, far more than any other driver in the 40-car field.
This one was more of the same. Harvick now has three victories in Atlanta, following up his triumphs in 2001 and 2018.
On a reverse victory lap, Harvick held three fingers outside his car, a tribute to the late Dale Earnhardt.
Harvick was the driver who replaced Earnhardt after the seven-time champion was killed in a crash at Daytona in 2001. A few weeks later, Harvick captured his first Cup victory in Atlanta.
