The NASCAR Playoffs Round of 12 is set to begin on Sunday night at Las Vegas Motor Speedway. Kevin Harvick won two of the three races in the Round of 16 while Brad Keselowski won the other.
Harvick and Keselowski will each look to advance to the Round of 8 alongside 10 other drivers: Denny Hamlin, Joey Logano, Chase Elliott, Martin Truex Jr., Alex Bowman, Austin Dillon, Aric Almirola, Kyle Busch, Clint Bowyer and Kurt Busch. The two Busch brothers, as well as Almirola and Bowyer begin the round below the cutoff line.
