Underappreciated Drivers Who Will Become Fan Favorites in 2015

Hard as it may seem to believe, there are a number of NASCAR drivers who already have established large fanbases and yet they’re still underappreciated.


Reigning Sprint Cup champion Kevin Harvick was that way for several years. He was one of the hardest-working drivers in the series but just didn’t have the luck or breaks that other drivers seemed to enjoy.


It wasn’t until Harvick left Richard Childress Racing after 13 seasons to move to Stewart-Haas Racing that he finally achieved the pinnacle of his sport, becoming the 2014 Sprint Cup champ.


With the new elimination format of the Chase that was introduced for 2014, who will become the next Harvick in 2015?


We’re not saying necessarily that he or she will win it all like Harvick did, but the following 10 drivers are definitely capable of—and in some cases overdue for—greater success and appreciation in 2015.
