Free agent in waiting
Kevin Harvick believes he has time to figure out his Cup future. But with
Kasey Kahne set to join the
Chevy family, options for
Harvick to make a move appear limited.
Childress optimistic Harvick will return to RCR
As a free agent, driver's options appear limited in 2011
Kevin Harvick believes he has time to figure out his Cup future in 2011 and beyond. But with Kasey Kahne set to join the Chevy family, options for Harvick to move to another team are obviously limited.
Harvick did indicate that whatever happens, he expects to continue driving
Chevrolets. His two truck teams and his Nationwide team are backed by
Chevy.
"That would be a good, fair statement," he said.
Childress admitted he wants to be careful not to let off-the-track negotiations become a distraction that adversely affects on-track performance.
In the meantime, it doesn't hurt for
Harvick and Childress to keep the lines of communication open between each other.
