While Kevin Harvick has raced his final NASCAR Cup Series race, the honors and accolades are still rolling in. That includes a massive gesture from Busch Light and Anheuser-Busch that I didn’t even know was possible.
Kevin Harvick is going to have an entire finishing tank at the St. Louis brewery dedicated to him. It’s a massive tank that will feature Harvick’s image and a little 4EVER design on it. This is one of the coolest things I’ve seen as Harvick closes out his career.
NASCAR fans are going to be able to enjoy beer that was finished in the Harvick tank. Think about that, how cool is that?!
Next year Busch Light moves on to Ross Chastain. However, Kevin Harvick will 4EVER be their driver.
Of course, this weekend marked an emotional day for Kevin Harvick. e raced his final Cup Series race. Decades of hard work and dedication, it all came down to this season. No, it didn’t always go how he pictured it. However, he finished strong at Phoenix with a P7 finish.
21 races in a row at Phoenix with a top-10 finish. Another testament to his talent, perseverance, and stubbornness in the best way possible.
On Sunday, Harvick gave one final toast to Busch Light and his NASCAR family.
Kevin Harvick went on ’emotional rollercoaster’ at Phoenix
All season long we talked about Kevin Harvick and his retirement. It was a big topic. While it was brought up throughout the season, it didn’t feel real until yesterday. That was it. It’s over now. We are in the post-Harvick era.
After the race, Harvick reflected on his ride to his finale.
“It’s been an emotional roller coaster for sure,” Harvick said. “This really means a lot to me because I love driving a racecar, I love being around the people more. This sport’s done so much for me. I opened this chapter unexpectedly in 2001 and closed it how we wanted in 2023, being competitive. … There’s been so many great so tires and things that have happened this year, but especially this week.”
He just wants to be remembered as a competitor.
“We gave it all we had. Every lap, every week. We touched every facet of this car. There’s just not any piece of it that I feel we’re not a part of in some way, shape or form.”
