Kevin Harvick disqualified from Talladega Cup race
Kevin Harvick, who lost to Ryan Blaney by a mere 0.012 seconds in a photo finish at Talladega Superspeedway, was disqualified by NASCAR due to unsecured windshield fasteners on his car. This violation of NASCAR rules resulted in Harvick losing all stage points earned in the race and being moved to 38th place. The revised top-10 finishing order now includes Blaney, William Byron, Denny Hamlin, Corey LaJoie, Austin Cindric, Justin Haley, Chase Elliott, Ryan Preece, Riley Herbst, and Daniel Suarez. Stewart-Haas Racing has the option to appeal the penalty, but no immediate response was received from the organization. Harvick’s career final superspeedway race ended with this disqualification, although he has previously achieved victories at Talladega and Daytona. This is the first disqualification of a Cup Series team this season, with the last one occurring in the 2022 season’s penultimate race.
