2015 Fantasy Recap: Kevin Harvick had one of the most impressive seasons that I have seen in quite a long time, but he didn't win the championship. I know many people are upset about that, but that how this chase format is sometimes. Nevertheless it does not take anything away from the season he had in 2015. He led the series in almost every stat. For me what makes Kevin so good is how week in and week out, he is one of the drivers to beat. He consistently get top 5 finishes. For me any driver who have consistency and speed, that alone is a winning recipe for fantasy success. The one downside to Kevin in 2015 was, more times than not he did not win enough races. I could name several races, he dominated and did not win. Even though he finished inside the top 5 in most of those he didn't win. Overall he had a very fine year and I would expect more of the same in the future.
Strong Tracks: Phoenix, Homestead, Charlotte, Michigan and Kansas
Weak Tracks: Martinsville and Bristol

2016 Fantasy Outlook: I expect great things from Kevin Harvick and the 4 team in 2016! Much like the first few seasons, I expect Kevin Harvick to contend for race wins on a weekly basis. Harvick main asset for years have been consistency. If we look at his career, he have least racked up 19 Top 10 finishes in 7 of his past 10 seasons. He also have posted 3 or more wins in his past 5 of 6 season dating back to 2010 season with RCR. Needless to say, Harvick have been one of the best drivers in the series for awhile now. In 2016 I expect no different from him. In fact, I would expect him to try to outproduce his numbers from last season. Personally I expect him to post 3-4 wins, 20+ Top 5 finishes and 25+ Top 10 finishes. Anything below that would be considered a disappointment. Considering he have 10 wins, 37 Top 5s and 48 Top 10s in his first two seasons with SHR. I would think the standards are high for this raceteam in 2016.
