Stock Car Scoop: Winner Denny Hamlin Calls Talladega Controversy ‘A Non-Story’

Denny Hamlin won the YellaWood 500 at Talladega Superspeedway (Oct. 4). But the victory didn’t come without some controversy. How did Hamlin deal with the criticism and why does he feel like it’s a “non-story?” Find out what he had to say in the latest edition of Stock Car Scoop. 

Frontstretch‘s newest podcast focused on the motorsports news of the week also keeps you up to date on the NASCAR playoff standings after Talladega. Host Bryan Nolen also recaps the Xfinity and Gander RV & Outdoors Truck series races held at the track on Saturday afternoon.

NASCRAP is a giant JOKE that why all the fans have disapeared

Denny would be singing a different tune if Nascar had actually called him for passing on the apron when he had plenty of room to back above the yellow line. What a crock.

DENNY EXACT WORD …. “Just was able to overcome. This is one of those that you don’t plan on winning, but we got away with one today.”
