What a way to leave Kansas...on this episode of Actions Detrimental, Denny Hamlin breaks down a frustrating near-win and why this one hurts more than most. From late race chaos to the restart that slipped away, Denny explains how a race he felt in control of turned into another tough loss. Things take a turn when Ricky Stenhouse Jr. shows up in studio to talk strategy, speed, and why their team is showing up on Saturdays but still searching for answers on Sundays. Okay, okay... the real reason he was there was to talk about Travis’s bad takes. Denny also gets into overtime finishes, stage racing, and whether the current format is helping or hurting the sport. He shares his thoughts on tire strategy, lapped traffic, and the decisions that can change everything in the final laps. There is plenty of frustration, some perspective, and a few lighter moments too, including golf, fishing, and how a surprise visit helped turn Denny’s Monday around. Drop your thoughts in the comments. Was Kansas a missed win or just bad luck? Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
