NASCAR at Richmond results: Kevin Harvick takes second straight victory with Federated Auto Parts 400 win image

"Happy" days are here again.

A week after Kevin Harvick secured his first NASCAR Cup Series victory since 2020, the driver of the No. 4 car stood in victory lane again Sunday at Richmond Raceway after a second consecutive race win.

Christopher Bell made quite the push in the closing laps of the race, but his charge proved fruitless. Harvick pulled away from the No. 20 car on the last turn for his 60th career win. An unforced error on Harvick's part almost gave Bell the victory:

Joey Logano owned most of the race with 222 laps led. He jockeyed with Denny Hamlin for position before Harvick took over.
