Denny Hamlin has become a major topic of discussion in the NASCAR fraternity after he made the shocking confession about retaliating against his bitter rival Ross Chastain on his podcast, triggering major debates and controversies. Hamlin recently opened up about the unique goal behind his initiative, which cost him $50k and 25 regular season points.
“You know my job on this podcast and what I did last week was give the fans listening, an inside perspective of what they are hearing here, what did the TV not show you, what did they show but maybe not explain.”
“How many times have we heard people say, ‘It’s too damn confusing. I don’t understand NASCAR. I’m coming here on Monday to try to help with that, this is helping the sport.”
After his confession, it seemed that all hell broke loose, with some fans and critics getting furious over his actions. NASCAR’s response to his admission has also become a big topic of criticism in recent times. Meanwhile, some drivers and fans have even publically backed the NASCAR veteran in tough times.
