Kyle Larson left Talladega with a 73-point lead and two races to go, and Denny Hamlin is pretty honest about what that means for his championship chances.
Denny, Jared, and producer Travis break down the fuel save that slowed Stage 1 to a crawl, RFK’s decision to push the pace, and the team orders that came into play with Chevrolet. Then things get heated when Denny and Jared go frame by frame over whether Austin Hill actually drove below the yellow line on the final lap.
They also get into Christopher Bell’s early crash, Denny getting shuffled out of line, the crash that flipped Joey Logano and left Riley Herbst with one of the hardest hits of the year, and what went wrong for Denny on the last lap. Denny also reflects on what this season has meant, regardless of how it ends.
Plus: Freedom Factory, Zane Smith’s Phoenix fine, Brad Keselowski’s RFK bid, Chase Elliott stepping away from Most Popular Driver voting, and why Denny wants NASCAR to rethink the Phoenix dogleg.
