Chase Elliott gets the win, but Denny Hamlin was right there with him. What looked like a simple P2 on paper was anything but, as Texas turned into a full-on track position battle where one restart could make or break your day. Denny breaks down how it slipped away. From getting buried in traffic to timing that final restart just about as perfectly as possible… and still coming up short. Was staying out the right call? Why did passing become nearly impossible late? And how close he actually was to clearing the 9 for the lead. Then it’s everything else from a chaotic Texas weekend. Strategy gambles, pit road madness, and plenty for Actions Detrimental to sort through. Denny weighs in on the Kyle Busch situation, Preece vs. Gibbs, and the restarts that had everyone on edge. Plus, strong runs from Bowman, Bubba charging back through the field, and Spire showing real speed. We also dive into the points picture, where Tyler Reddick is in a league of his own, and what it’ll take for SVG to make a push. A runner-up finish, a lot of what-ifs, and a race that was one move away from a very different ending. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
