The Great American Getaway 400 was dominated by a surprising individual, but at the end of the day there was a familiar site in victory lane at Pocono Raceway on Sunday (June 14).
Stock Car Scoop host Eric Schneck navigates you through the Great American Getaway 400 where for the third week in a row, Denny Hamlin won from the pole to close to within 19 points of current leader Tyler Reddick in the NASCAR Cup Series standings.
Schneck is joined by fellow Frontstretch contributors Michael Bellifemini and Stephen Stumpf, where they break down another powerful performance by Hamlin, the surprisingly dominant display by John Hunter Nemechek and Christopher Bell almost stealing the victory with his fractured wrist.
Wrapping things up, Schneck takes a look at next week’s inaugural running of the Anduril 250 Race the Base, taking place at Naval Base Coronado in San Diego.
