NASCAR Stat Sheet: Almirola Is the Unlikely Hero for SHR in New Hampshire
July 20, 2021
Last year was a memorable one for Stewart Haas Racing, with Kevin Harvick providing most of the highlights for the team throughout 2020. Nine wins and a boatload of laps led will do that for just about any driver and team. It’s been well documented that 2021 has been far less kind to the SHR quartet, but if anyone could break through and lead the return to victory lane, it’d be Harvick, right?
Wrong. Aric Almirola took advantage of a bizarre, rain slicked start that removed some of the heaviest competition to score his first Cup win in nearly three years. It was also the first of the year for perennial contender SHR.
1. Has there ever been as clutch a win as the one Aric Almirola just pulled off?
Ever since Kyle Larson started getting on a roll, the dream of NASCAR Cup Series playoff intrigue has been just about dead. Then this past Sunday (July 18), Aric Almirola decided to give it the racing equivalent of a defibrillator jolt.
Up until the Cup cars rolled into New Hampshire, Almirola’s 2021 season had been, to put it bluntly, dismal. As recently as 2020, Almirola and the No. 10 team had managed to rack up five straight top-five finishes, but he entered Loudon with only one such result this year (at Nashville) plus a lowly one additional top-10 finish (at Richmond). Playoffs? Please cue the famous Jim Mora video for the proper way to scoff at the idea.
