Kevin Harvick Ekes Out Photo Finish In Phoenix

The second photo finish took place Sunday, as Kevin Harvick edged Carl Edwards by a splitter in Phoenix. The finish was reminiscent to just a couple weeks ago at Daytona in which Denny Hamlin just defeated Martin Truex Jr.

Harvick dominated the field, leading 139 of the scheduled 313 laps on the tricky Arizona track, and was only really challenged by Edwards, Kyle Busch and Dale Earnhardt Jr. throughout the afternoon.

Edwards managed to hold the lead for 65 laps while pole-sitter Kyle Busch, who's already making a solid foundation on this year, led 75 laps but wound up fourth. Denny Hamlin was able to sneak his way into third, while Dale Earnhardt Jr. rounded out the top five.

Next week, it's off to Auto Club Speedway in California for the Auto Club 400.
