Kyle Busch is known in NASCAR for his infamous temper, which is why coming up short in three Championship four situations had to be maddening for the Las Vegas native. The man literally had some of the best performances of his career from 2016 to 2018, but always managed to get denied when it came to championship weekend. For example, in 2018, he captured eight checkered flags and still finished 4th due to a bad restart. The man had an average finish of 8.3 and still lost.

Then there was 2017, where he earned five wins 14 top-fives, and 22 top-tens before he was etched out  by Martin Truex Jr in the final race. Unfortunately for Busch, that once again cost him the championship due to NASCAR’s winner takes all formula. Kyle Busch would eventually go on to win a championship in 2019, which had to feel good after a streak like this!
