Kevin Harvick – Kevin Harvick is a super-elite performer at Las Vegas who’ll be one of the drivers to beat. He’s a recent Las Vegas winner and since 2015 in incident free races he has a 3.3 average finish, a 3.5 average running position and he’s averaged leading 111.25 laps per race. Earlier this year at Las Vegas, Kevin Harvick had a strong showing from the pole. In the race he earned the best driver rating, finished 4th, had a 3rd place average running position and led 88 laps. Additionally, he finished 1st in Stage #1 and 2nd in Stage #2. Last fall at Las Vegas he had a fast car and was top five good, but finished a misleading 39th. On lap 148 while he was running around 6th place he had a flat tire and crashed hard which marked the end of his race. In the event he finished 2nd in Stage # 1, led 14 laps and probably would’ve finished in the top five if his race would’ve been incident free. In spring 2018 he put on a display of domination and was the class of the field. He earned a perfect driver rating, finished 1st, led 214 laps and won both Stage #1 and Stage #2. On Sunday, I would look for Harvick to compete for a top five and potentially be a factor to win.

Brad Keselowski – Brad Keselowski is arguably the premiere performer at Las Vegas and on Sunday he should be on your short list of favorites. He’s a three-time winner who has 8 straight results in the top seven. Over the last five races at Las Vegas he has a 3.0 average finish and a 5.4 average running position.

Additionally, he earned the 4th best driver rating, had a 7th place average running position, led 17 laps, finished 10th in Stage #1 and 4th in Stage #2. On the final lap of the race he made a serious charge for the win, but came up short. Last fall in the Las Vegas playoff debut he had a great car and raced his way to victory lane. In the race he earned the 2nd best driver rating, led the 2nd most laps (75) and won Stage #2. When it was “closing time” nobody was going to beat him. In spring 2018, Keselowski ran well. He finished 6th, had a 6th place average running position and earned the 7th best driver rating. In both Stage #1 & #2 he finished 6th. In 2017, he had a great car and should’ve won.
