Kevin Harvick, defending champion of the Daytona 500 and driver of the #29 Shell Pennzoil Chevrolet Impala SS, was asked during preseason testing at Daytona what it would mean to him to win the 50th running of the Daytona 500…
I think to just the win the Daytona 500 last year was something that I don’t think I realized the magnitude of the race obviously, and to understand that and be able to come back and just when you rolled in this morning just kind of realize everything that happened the last February.
And being the 50th anniversary of the race and being able to be a part of the 50th anniversary celebration with all the past winners is something that’s been pretty cool to be a part of.
