Denny Hamlin was not content with NASCAR halting the Cup Series race at New Hampshire Engine Speedway on Sunday because of downpour. The 43-year-old driver addressed NBC Sports about his dissatisfaction with the warning while at the same time being in third spot.
“Simply need additional time there,” Hamlin said. “Right now, you’re somewhat re-think like, ‘Which path did I pick? How would I move toward the corners? How is it that I could make up additional time?’ It will be a tall errand for us to return to the front with only a couple of green-banner laps, yet we had a couple of good restarts and a couple of fair ones. This moment we’re third, so it’s disappointing.
“I feel like our vehicle is great, however these are the factors we manage.”
Hamlin proceeded to discuss how the race was going whenever it was realized that downpour was moving toward the area. “Everybody realizes downpour is approaching, so you’re simply attempting to give your very best for gain any spot,” he said. “… In the event that they can simply get front and center, they have some control over the speed and it will make much more straightforward. We as a whole are doing combating as hard as we can on the grounds that we know it’s inevitable.”
Denny Hamlin on Tyler Reddick possibly coming out on top in New Hampshire Race
At the point when the race was hit with the warning, Tyler Reddick was in the lead position, and he drives for 23XI Hustling, a group Hamlin co-claims with Michael Jordan. Hamlin was asked what his response will be on the off chance that Reddick is proclaimed the champ while he has a shot at getting one more triumph during the current year.
“I truly want to believe that we get back moving in light of the fact that we feel like we got a decent Yippee! Camry and we love to get moving,” Hamlin made sense of. “In any case, on the off chance that we don’t, then so be it.”
Assuming the race is called, Hamlin will procure his 6th top-five completion in eight races. He has come out on top in three races this year and entered Sunday’s race third in the Cup Series standings behind Kyle Larson and Pursue Elliott. Hamlin, who has won 54 Cup Series races in his profession, is as yet searching for his most memorable Cup Series title. He completed second in 2010 and no more awful than fifth over the most recent five years.
