Age is just a number for Denny Hamlin! Join Kevin Harvick, Kaitlyn Vincie, and Mamba Smith on this week’s Happy Hour as they break down a historic, caution-filled weekend at Michigan International Speedway.
For the second consecutive week, Denny Hamlin went from last to first. In an emotional tribute to his former teammate and late friend, Hamlin tied Kyle Busch on the all-time wins list and drove a KB flag during his post-race burnout. The crew analyzes how Hamlin continues to perform at an elite level at age 45, securing the biggest margin of victory on a NASCAR oval since 2018.
We break down the massive on-track impact between Chase Elliott and Christopher Bell, Carson Hocevar's highly controversial restart incident that triggered Tyler Reddick’s DNF, and Hocevar's post-race confrontation with Bubba Wallace. Plus, we look at Toyota's ongoing dominance, Spire Motorsports’ stellar top-six finishes, and Connor Zilisch’s persistent rookie struggles.
