Kevin Harvick is off to a slower start than a year ago, but it doesn’t in any way damage how dangerous he will probably be at ISM Raceway in Phoenix on Sunday for the TicketGuardian 500.
Harvick has nine career wins at the one-mile track and finishes in the top 10 in 65.6 percent of his races there. He is undoubtedly the favorite to win.
However, as good as he is, Kyle Busch cannot be underestimated with seven leading 7s in his past seven races and two career wins in Phoenix. He has finished in six of his last seven attempts there.
This race will be a duel between the two and whoever gets out in front at the onset of the third phase will be the absolute favorite. This time we are going to select Busch to come out the victor, as he might have picked up the win last week had it not been for a speeding penalty on pit road.
The TicketGuardian 500 can be viewed Sunday at 3:30 p.m. ET on FOX.

Which NASCAR drivers should you watch in the TicketGuardian 500?
Aric Almirola was quietly good this season with two top 10s in his last two races and just a stick to his title. He will likely have a fantastic week as he has finishes of seventh, fourth and ninth at Phoenix in his last few runs at the track.
