How did one of the greatest seasons in NASCAR history crumble in a matter of weeks? How did Harvick get into such a great position only to get in a desperate dash to end the race at Martinsville? Well today we look, we look at the Missing Ring: Kevin Harvick 2020.

Yeah, it pains me to make this but Harv’s 2020 season fits perfectly in the Missing Rings series. Enjoy this episode, it may be the last episode in this series for a little while...
This is bullshit hes not champion
Should be Championship Season’s: Kevin Harvick
Unless Hamlin loses in Phoenix
According to Racing Reference, at this point in the season (at the time of recording) if the championship was on points alone he would’ve locked up the title prematurely-he was THAT good.
That series belongs to Darian, the Flagman from Black Flags Matter.
Yo. My man’s working faster than Xfinity internet.
Mans just secured his sponsorship lol
Let’s hope Xfinity doesn’t send you to the Gulags for that comment lol
faster than SF1000
Proud sponsor of NASCAR cup series
Criminally unders subbed amazing channel
You can feel the anger in his voice when he went over the round of 8.
Everyone when the race ended: lol there is gonna be a missing rings episode about Harvick but idk when
Iceberg: *I AM SPEED*
He had it being editing by stage 1😂
First thing that popped in my mind when Harvick wrecked on the final stretch in desperation of getting to Phoenix: "Harvick and Harvick fans are really starting to feel what it was like for Gordon and Gordon fans."
We know your pain all too well.
Actually, I'm sure they felt it in 2010, 2015, 2016 too
Kevin Harvick: *misses playoffs*
Iceberg: *took two days to make video*
Ikr
Shows how infuriated he is about it. He put a lot of research into it

Odds are, he probably put most this footage together before creating this video for the chance he didnt win in Phoenix. Plot twist, didnt even make it. lol
Jeff Gordon and Harvick have been screwed so hard by the playoffs/chase.
Cough, Gordon 2015, cough
Logano 2015 also

He deserves 3 and possibly 4 championship by now. A truly underrated driver.
He deserves all the championships he has, but no more, he didn’t do what he needed to do to get the 2 or 3 championships. It doesn’t matter if it was the playoffs, that’s the system, that’s what you are supposed to win a championship under. Winston cup format hasn’t mattered in years.
With no playoffs he win 2010, 2015, 2016 and 2020
@@NathanJakobMichaelThomas How would it be fair for a driver that had a average of 12th all season win the championship over a driver that had a average finish of 3rd or better? It just discredits what the best driver of the whole season did. Waste of 26 races when only the final 10 truly count.
Underrated? Everyone has been going crazy about this guy but he didn't even make it to Phoenix. I know the playoffs are controversial, but ultimately you have to be able to win under those rules if you are going to be champion.
@@confusdseb7642 Harvick or any driver could potentially win 35 of 36 races and not be the champion. How anyone could defend that type of championship format boggles my mind.
When Jaret makes a missing rings video before the season is even over
*confused screaming*
Under the old format Kevin Harvick would now be a 4 time Champion (2010, 2015, 2016 & 2020)
Kyle busch would've won 2015 under the old format if he ran all the races.
We didn’t see this coming

@@bw-leftturnracing7779 yeah
Dudes worst finish of the season was a 26th. He led over 1,500 laps. Only driver without a single DNF. And you're telling me he isn't even eligible to race for the championship? What a horrible points system we have. Ask any driver that races with him each week and if they were being honest they'd say the same thing.
Completed all but 2 laps too
Has 20 top 5 finishes while Logano has 11. Has 26 top 10 finishes. Only 9 races finishing outside the top 10. Led in top 5s, top 10s, & of course wins. NASCAR has lost it.
@@oldsrocket8841 I hope he wins Phoenix too.
It happens in every sport. This system prioritizes consistency and wins, some people are better at one then the other. Harvick and his team were not good enough in the round of 8, so they got eliminated. It happens in every sport and no one complains about it as much as NASCAR fans. Yall need to get over yourself and figure out whether you even want to watch. Examples would be how every NBA game matters, and if you have one bad game, your hopes are over. As well as the NFL when the Patriots went 18-0 and didnt win the SB.
@@tglylekarson8558 I guess the reason us Nascar fans care so much as you put it, is because In our sport, when a champion is crowned, he's the legit champ. Not like in the nfl where a 9-7 team backs into the playoffs because they're in a weak division then gets hot and wins 4 in a row. Nascars best driver won't be eligible to get his trophy this year because of flukes
This is so frustrating. A guy with nine wins can’t make the championship 4. Don’t argue that the patriots went 17-0 or whatever they played one team. they didn’t play against 30+ other drivers or teams.
Thats what playoffs are for, it isnt like how it used to be
Quickest turnaround on a Missing Rings episode ever😂
In all Kevin Harvick had 9 wins, 20 top fives, 27 top tens, and only one finish outside the Top 20 in the 2020 season. He also had an average finish of 7.33, and had no DNF's the entire season, finishing all but three laps. In fact, Kevin Harvick's 7.33 average finish ties with Jeff Gordon's 7.33 average finish in 2007, as the lowest average finish since Dale Jarrett's 6.76 average finish in 1999 on his way to winning the 1999 championship.
Just saw the notification and I’m like we all saw this coming
Jeff Gordon, Carl Edwards, and Kevin Harvick just enter the chat.
You know its 2020 when a missing rings video revolved around this year is released before the season is even complete
As a Harvick fan since 2007, this hurts my heart 😭
I'll still recognize him as the champion, regardless of what nascar says
ok no one asked
@@GK-ex1gy nobody asked you to reply
😂😂😂
This exposes the playoff format big time. They're looking for more "game 7" moments while flat out snubbing the guy who basically pulled off the 4 game sweep
I like how we all thought that he was a lock, but then the format did the thing
I knew it! Literally as soon as I saw the end of the race yesterday I said, Missing Rings: Kevin Harvick 2020
“Missing Logic: Nascar Playoff Format”
Make a playoff format right now that doesn’t lock up the championship with 3 races to go
I say Gibbs altered the end of the race by ordering the 20 to not pass the 11, forcing the 4 into a position of desperation, and that's a hill I will die on
It's controversial for sure but I'm personally still pulling for Hamlin since he was 2nd best this season.
@@hansmoke014 I still can't forgive Hamlin for Martinsville (2016 I think, can't quite remember) when he wrecked Chase. I could forgive him for a bump and run, but it was a full on take out, and I'm a Hendrick fan, so seeing that made me have a bit of a distaste for Hamlin
@@gavinwinkler1147 I respect that
@@gavinwinkler1147 It was 2017
@@NASCARFAN93100 I couldn't remember the exact year, I just knew Chase was in the 24 still
Simple solution: ditch the "win-and-you're-in" format during the playoff rounds. What eliminated Harvick wasn't a string of bad result, because they weren't that bad. What eliminated him was a driver below the cutoff line winning ONE race and instantly becoming untouchable for him and drivers who have been consistent all year. What good are playoff points then? Removing this feature still leaves playoff drivers with an opportunity for clawing their way back by getting consistent wins and high finishes during the playoffs, but not by getting a single well timed win.
Man you were fast on uploading this video! Faster than Harvick's Martinsville run!
Edit: I'll let myself out
Missed a good opportunity: Man, you were *Freaky Fast* on uploading this video
I'm gonna laugh so hard if next week this same video comes out for Denny Hamlin
I called it lmfao
Love how the season isn’t over yet and this is out. Awesome video!!
Was waiting for this
Listen, I’m a Harvick fan, so what I may say might be biased, but I’ve seen it in the comment section so I’ll type it. For one, I like the playoff system, but it needs tweaks. There should be more playoff points provided per win. A driver shouldn’t be able to win 2 stages off of pit strategy and get 3 less playoff points then the winner. And the Championship should be a set of 3, with a build up on points towards the end so it’s not top finisher, and the worst of the 4 all season can get a 10th place but be the Champion. But ultimately, I like the 3 race knock out system, it’s exciting, and all though we lost, Martinsville was exciting. Now let’s talk Denny Hamlin. He doesn’t deserve to be in the final 4 of Harvick isnt. He has been atrocious in the playoffs, and let’s not forget didn’t even finish top 10 at Martinsville. Plus NASCAR has saves him twice. We can all remember Talledega, where he clearly violated the yellow line rule. A rule that NASCAR has used to take wins away from drivers before. But they didn’t take one from Denny, although he clearly violated it. That 5 points saved him. And let’s talk about the 100% rule. A rule that they enforced just last year on the charter teams. (Watch Eric Estepp’s video for more clarification on tbat, I’m not to sure the calling), but also used it in 2013 to take MTJ out of the playoffs, although I will say that was more extreme. But in 2013, they added a 13th guy to the playoffs, but couldn’t add Harvick to a championship 5? Don’t know if I would like that I’m just saying what NASCAR could have done to enforce this rule. But they also fined MWR, and I don’t see a fine for Gibbs. It was clear over the radio “don’t pass him Jones”, and then we saw Jones check up. And although Harvick should have won Kansas, it’s not as bad as the others, because I will admit Logano raced that well, in order to keep Kevin behind him. At this point I’m fed up with NASCAR. There shouldn’t be anymore penalties based off the reaction they expect from the fans. If you are going to write a rule in the rule book, write it well and enforce it equally among all drivers. It’s sad at this point. Reply and let me know what you think to this 🤷🏻♂️
I fully agree. About the 100% rule thing, I think it's about drivers having to race to the full ability of the car or as hard as they can to achieve the best possible finish for themselves and by Jones refusing to pass Hamlin despite having the better car, he violated that rule. The message was as clear as day. The excuse nascar gave was that it was not a team order or something? Comedy central
The video we all been waiting for
Man I feel bad for Harvick, he doesnt deserves that, 9 wins, a dominant season, in total points he's way ahead of everybody, I feel really bad for him man, that hurt
"It's still 2020"-KFB
Love the content! Greetings from Belgium everyone!
Heck yes I been waiting to watch this
I heard somebody yesterday say that Kevin Harvick’s 2020 missing ring was gonna happen and @TheIceberg never disappoints to explain the whole aftermath.
Damn your faster then Kevin Harvick with this upload speed.
great video 💪
I've been a Harvick fan since my first race at Talladega in 2010 and watched him beat Jamie Mac at the line. Watching him dominate in 2020 was amazing. Seeing it all just fall apart at Martinsville was heartbreaking and infuriating. I didn't even watch Pheonix I was so mad. How could a guy who wins 9 races not win the championship? Happy for Chase but come on. Get rid of the playoffs.
Yes I’m a Harvick fan too the playoffs are the worst thing to happen to nascar in the last 30 years
Me after reading title: Your kidding right?
Me after a few seconds: Wait, that wreck ended statically one of Harvick’s best seasons?
This is a much-needed episode. I don't have a problem with the playoff format personally, but man this does show that it has problems. I don't know, maybe a points format change is not that far away.
Experts at NASCAR race hub had him in the final 4 championship but they were wrong..great work iceberg!
LMAOO that was quick Mr Iceberg
To think that Harvick has not won since Bristol and is currently behind the Playoff cutline this year, like something to him happened after that Martinsville race.
Harvick: This is my year
Elliott: thats cute
I think Harvick goal at this point is either tying or passing dale earnhardt sr on the all time wins list. And I don't blame him for having that approach because it seem like wins are more important than winning a title which is sad. Someone's body of work throughout a season doesn't even mean matter anymore.
It’s honestly horrible how harvick can finish so well the entire season and have the chaseless title clinched two races early but because he had 2 bad races his entire title hunt is over. This format is horrible. Hamlin is the only one who’s even been close to harvick’s performance the whole season and he should still be 110 points or so off. I hope he wins it just cause he’s the only one who really deserves it other than harvick.
Finally a missing ring episode I miss these
Yep everyone was expecting this
As a life long fan of Harvick, this season and 2018 were painful. This one he just dominated all year!!!! 9 wins, the best pit crew on all of NASCAR and then when the playoffs started, he fell apart so bad. The pit crew fell to 13th and it definitely showed. When he made that last ditch effort at Martinsville and wrecked, I knew it was over. I hope he can get one more.
You know as a few days have passed, I'm way less upset about Harvick missing the final 4. First off, this season was great. 2018 was definitely a better season. 1 less win, more top 5's, more top 10's, almost the same average finish, more laps led, and almost double the amount of stage wins. Harvick also didn't win the championship that year either. The 4 team was also just not good later on in the playoffs. In those last two races, Texas and Martinsville, the 4 team did not score a single stage point. I get he would've won it in a season long format, but that's not we run. Everyone runs the same playoff format, so it's not like everyone had some advantage over him. He had a huge points cushion heading into the round and choked it away. And in any of the other chase/playoff formats, Harvick is almost midpack based on performance in the playoffs. I believe Chase Elliott is the champion in all but the 2014 format. Champions preform most when it matters, and the 4 team didn't. I don't wanna hear anything about how this isn't stick and ball sports, and how we race everyone every week. In the end, champions rise to the occasion, and Harvick did not run well enough. And it's not like the 14 seed beat Harvick, which in other sports is celebrated. The drivers that made it were like 2-5. They all definitely deserved to be there. I love Harvick, and I'd love to see him win another, but they just flat out choked this year.
I still cannot believe it this one hurts as a Harvick fan his best season and I hope he wins this week he could make it 10 wins in the season and 10 wins at phoenix He will finish strong
Yeah, this was a painful season by missing the final 4, now I have an idea
Missing rings, Kyle Busch 2017
You knew this was coming.
I mean it was inevitable that you would make this video but good lord the season isn't even over lol
Ryan Newman 2014 season was amazing when Harvick ended up winning the championship with victories, Newman came runner up 1 point without winning, I would suggest talking about it if you have another series talking about NASCAR drivers who almost can win the championship at some season they are close to
What if NASCAR had a points system that actually rewarded the best driver and team
@Blck Mach1 sure lets just lock the championship up with 3 races to go like in Formula 1. Everyone will love it!
I know you all think the playoffs are stupid, but If they still were doing Winston points, the end of the season wouldn’t be worth watching
What is the song that plays at the end of your videos? Love all your stuff
Remember, this format rewards winning....right?!
I saw this coming the second he spun out on the last lap
