Ahead of his final NASCAR Cup Series season, Kevin Harvick has his plans in place for life post-driving.
Harvick will join Mike Joy and former teammate Clint Bowyer in the FOX Sports booth, beginning in 2024.
During the FOX pre-race show before Sunday’s exhibition Busch Light Clash at the Coliseum, Harvick broke the news.

“I’m really looking forward to working with the FOX NASCAR team full-time,” Harvick said. “I’ve enjoyed the experience in the booth the last several years because it has given me valuable insight into what being in the booth is all about. Getting the chance to step into the booth with Mike and Clint in 2024 is an honor and a great way to stay connected to the sport and NASCAR fans.”
Along with his full time driving duties in the No. 4 Stewart-Haas Racing Ford, Harvick is scheduled to call four NASCAR Xfinity Series and three NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series races this year for FS1.
“I can’t overstate how thrilled we are for Kevin to be an official member of the FOX Sports family,” Brad Zager, president, production & operations/executive producer, FOX Sports said. “This is a marriage eight years in the making — since he first stepped into our NASCAR Xfinity Series booth with more presence and poise than most newcomers dream of. It has been fun to watch Kevin learn the TV ropes, and we cannot wait to hear him, Mike (Joy) and Clint (Bowyer) call their first race together.”
The 2014 Cup Series champion will stay busy in his retirement year, competing in two Superstar Racing Experience races as well as his Cup Series and broadcast duties.
