NASCAR insider’s bold claim

Over the years, the landscape of racing has undergone significant changes. Drivers now seem willing to do whatever it takes to secure a win. Notably, Ross Chastain and Denny Hamlin have garnered attention for their aggressive driving styles. Kenny Wallace, an outspoken figure in the sport, has shed light on Denny Hamlin’s unique approach, suggesting that it injects much-needed entertainment into NASCAR, which appears to be fading among other drivers.

Speaking on the Kenny Wallace show, Kenny expressed his admiration for Denny Hamlin, saying, “He’s the gift that keeps giving and you know I’m a Denny fan because I truly believe that our drivers have lost their luster and you know we’ve had Kevin Harvick on here and he said,’ look a lot of the things I did back in the day were a show. ”

He continued, “Now you’re saying to a guy that’s like a best friend with the great Michael Jordan like you’re going to get Denny Hamlin. He’s got his show ‘Actions Detrimental’, he says what he wants to say, turns it off and goes at the race track, qualifies second, and wins the race. So, keep your booing up because he’s awesome and I think NASCAR should pay Denny Hamlin money because there’s no doubt in my mind right now that Denny Hamlin is the show.”

In fact, Denny Hamlin’s response to the fans after winning the race was quite startling, further emphasizing his distinctive approach to the sport.
