After Pocono when Denny Hamlin and Kyle Larson made contact, former Cup Series teammate Kyle Busch reminded the NASCAR world of a similar 13 years ago in the All Star Race. The night that Denny Hamlin was an absolute weapon.

Denny is an enigma. I haven't had a driver I truly support since Keselowski left Penske (although I still believe in his talent). I think Denny has been one of the most talented drivers since he took over that 11 car, but has the biggest ego to go with it. I'd love to see him break through and win a championship, but his shenanigans and run-ins will only continue to suppress his full potential.

Incredibly normal night with one big block. Calling it a nightmare race is so bizarre, this is obviously an attempt to capitalize on the recent Hamlin controversies. Still, fun race and fun recap except for the reaching.

It’s very rare that a video from the NASCAR community actually pisses me off, but I feel like the way you titled this video and how you went after Denny specifically is such an obvious plot to capitalize in light of his current reputation. My problem with this is that there are plenty of examples of drivers having much dirtier races… I see nothing in this video that even comes close to justifying the title. I mean I don’t feel like picking apart every single incident he was in from this race, but to call him a “ABSOLUTE Weapon” is just not accurate. Every incident he was “Involved in” was not egregiously his fault, and yet you try to make it seem that way. To me the whole thing just seems like clickbait
