NASCAR veteran Denny Hamlin, with 54 career wins, is fighting for his playoff life after a chaotic race at Watkins Glen. A series of disastrous events – from poor qualifying to wrecks involving big names like Ryan Blaney and Kyle Busch – has Hamlin six points below the cutline. Despite his team’s best efforts to keep him in the race, his No. 11 Toyota took too much damage, leading to a disappointing 23rd-place finish.

Hamlin didn’t hold back in his post-race interview, slamming both his performance and NASCAR’s playoff structure, questioning the fairness of the current track selections. With his championship hopes hanging by a thread, all eyes are now on the upcoming Bristol Motor Speedway race, a track where Hamlin has had tremendous success in the past.

Will Bristol be Hamlin's saving grace, or is this the end of his 2024 championship run? Watch the video to get all the details and Denny’s fiery comments!
