Those three were names were of Kyle Busch, Martin Truex Jr, and Kevin Harvick.

During an interview, Busch said, “I look back on what was it 2017, 2018, where you had the ‘Big Three’ right? You had Martin Truex Jr. and you had Kevin Harvick. It was us every weekend, it seemed. And then, you know, Denny would pop in there, Logano would pop in there, a couple of other guys maybe. I want to go back to those days. Can we bring that back?”

Speaking about the Next-Gen cars he said, “I think the theme of this year is just the Next Gen, It’s just the unknowns of everything around this car.” According to Busch, everyone on the grid is trying to understand the new mechanics of the machinery that they are driving this year.

Busch then spoke about Chase Elliott’s utter dominance in the current season. Further mentioning that while they had both good and bad days this season, nobody was as lucky as Elliott, who scored a staggering four race wins.
