Kevin Harvick made winning two NASCAR Cup races in a row look easy with a commanding win at Las Vegas Motor Speedway on Sunday.
The Stewart-Haas Racing Ford driver led 209 of 267 laps as he swept all three stages and held off hometown hero Kyle Busch to take the checkered flag.
It was Harvick’s second win at the track in four years and his 100th career victory across NASCAR’s top three series.
"These last two weeks, we've just hit on everything we needed to," Harvick said. "My (team has) done their homework on a number of things. Just really proud of everybody."
Busch got close to his second career victory in his hometown with his Joe Gibbs Racing Toyota, but couldn't overcome the dominant leader. Kyle Larson finished third after winning the Xfinity Series race on Saturday, while defending champion Martin Truex Jr. was in fourth and pole-sitter Ryan Blaney in fifth.
Harvick has already matched his Cup win total from last season in three races — and he's headed to Phoenix, where he has won five times since 2012.
