Anybody who is tired of watching Kevin Harvick and Denny Hamlin dominate NASCAR Cup Series races in 2020 might be in for disappointment during Sunday's race at New Hampshire Motor Speedway, the track's one and only event on the NASCAR schedule.
Harvick, the points leader and the winner of four races this season, has won the last two NASCAR Cup Series races at New Hampshire. He earned the victory in this race last year when he edged Hamlin on the final corner of the Magic Mile.
Hamlin, who has won a series-high five Cup races in 2020, statistically is the best driver at the flat, one-mile oval in Loudon, N.H., but Harvick was considered the favorite to win Sunday's race. So there's a decent chance both drivers will be contenders in the closing laps of Sunday's Foxwoods Resort Casino 301.

NASCAR race start time today
- Date: Sunday, Aug. 2

The green flag for Sunday's NASCAR Cup Series race at New Hampshire is scheduled to wave at 3:18 p.m. ET, assuming there are no rain delays as there have been so often since NASCAR returned to live racing in May.
Though NASCAR will have plenty of time to get the race in with the sun not setting in Loudon until shortly after 8 p.m. ET, the relatively late start time for an afternoon race is notable because New Hampshire Motor Speedway does not have lights.
It's worth noting that Sunday's NASCAR Cup Series race is a standalone event with no Xfinity or Truck Series races at the track this weekend, so NASCAR would not need to worry about schedule conflicts should the Cup race get delayed by weather.
