TALLADEGA, Ala. — Guaranteed of a spot in the third round of NASCAR's playoffs, Kevin Harvick has no reason to race hard Sunday at Talladega Superspeedway. If it was up to him, he wouldn't race at all. Four of NASCAR's top drivers will see their title hopes come to an end at Talladega, where the Chase for the Sprint Cup championship field will be cut from 12 to eight.
Harvick safe from elimination, at ease at tense Talladega
