Kevin Harvick Explains How NASCAR ‘Can’t Screw Up’ LA Coliseum Busch Light Clash Now

Fans can rejoice as the NASCAR season is finally about to get underway. The first race of the season is at the Los Angeles Coliseum, which is making its debut this weekend. In the buildup to the weekend, the community has been divided about the track, mostly because of its narrow nature. Interestingly, Kevin Harvick has good news for the organizers and fans alike.

He said, “I don’t think you can screw it up at this point, personally. The event is here. The race track didn’t fly up. Practice went good. The cars all made the corners. People were passing each other. When you look at everything that has happened, the amount of tickets and media passes and all the things – you can’t screw it up at this point. That is my opinion.”

How did Kevin Harvick perform so far at the Coliseum?

Earlier, qualifying wrapped up with Kyle Busch coming out of the gates first and snatching pole. Meanwhile, Harvick ended up qualifying for the third heat and will start 6th in that race. From there, it will be a battle to try and make it into the Top 4, because only those drivers will move to the main event.

Even if Kevin Harvick fails to make it through, he will have a second bite of the cherry. To be exact, there are two last-chance qualifying sessions, where the Top 3 in each race will advance. If he fails even that, his only chance will be to hope that he is the highest-placed driver from last year’s championship, still remaining.

Of course, this is not to say that we don’t have faith in Harvick’s prowess behind the wheel. Without a doubt, he is an excellent driver and a former champion, and one who can certainly go all the way.
