“I’d Like to Send Kyle Busch Back” – Kevin Harvick Triggers Fans’ Uproar With a Brutally Honest Admission Involving Old Nemesis

In January, Kevin Harvick dropped the bombshell of his retirement from the NASCAR Cup Series, which is set to take effect after the 2023 season. As he gears up for the season finale at Phoenix, the Stewart-Haas Racing ace will probably be engaging with a lot of reporters, reminiscing on his illustrious career that deserves a place in the Hall of Fame.

Lately, as Harvick takes part in both the NASCAR Cup Series and Tony Stewart’s Superstar Racing Experience (SRX), he’s been hitting the interview circuit with gusto. Whether it’s pre-race or post-race, he’s been generously sharing tidbits about his life and insights, keeping fans in the loop with his candid revelations.

And this time, in a candid chat alongside fellow drivers Denny Hamlin and Ryan Newman ahead of the second SRX Series race at Stafford, Harvick playfully spilled the beans on his sentiments towards his long-time rival, Kyle Busch.

Kevin Harvick’s honest admission great a great reaction from the fans

In the world of NASCAR, controversies are bound to happen, and some are just pure happenstance, while others are orchestrated to stir up trouble. Kevin Harvick, it seems, falls into the latter category. When he announced his retirement plan earlier this year, he didn’t shy away from diving into questions about his clashes with other drivers.

He openly admitted that sometimes it’s all for the sake of the show, and he enjoys creating chaos. “When we didn’t run good, it was all about chaos. We wanted to cause as much chaos as we could,” Harvick confessed.

However, it appears there are still a few people he wouldn’t mind seeing disappear.

During a pre-race interview in Stafford, an anchor posed a fun hypothetical question: If a UFO landed somewhere tonight over the country, which driver—one driver—would you like to afford, to take a ride? With Ryan Newman and Denny Hamlin sitting alongside him, Harvick chuckled in response and bluntly said, “There’s been a lot of times I’d like to send Kyle Busch back.” His brutally honest reply caused quite a stir among the audience.

Of course, given that Harvick has often been the one stirring up trouble, his statement might rub some NASCAR fans the wrong way. Nonetheless, his candidness adds another layer of excitement to the already thrilling racing scene.
