Qualifying didn’t favor Denny Hamlin, as he found himself starting from P11, far from the front of the pack, where he’d prefer to be. The race itself appeared to be taking a grim turn until the final stage. At lap 104, Denny was leading the race and made a critical pit stop, a moment that would significantly impact the outcome. However, Denny’s car failed to maintain the required speed limit of 40–55 mph on the pit lane, resulting in a costly penalty that pushed him a lap behind.

Despite this setback, Denny Hamlin showcased his resilience during the late stages of the race. He clawed his way back into the top three positions, proving that his determination and skill were not to be underestimated. However, just as the race was reaching its climax, chaos erupted on the final lap, triggered by Corey LaJoie. LaJoie’s #7 car made contact with #38, involving other prominent drivers like Chase Elliott and Kyle Larson in the wreck. This dramatic turn of events left fans and pundits alike buzzing about what had transpired.

In the aftermath of the race, a fan took to Twitter, blaming Denny Hamlin for the wreck. In classic Denny fashion, he didn’t shy away from the criticism. Instead, the No. 11 fired back with a dose of humor, offering the hater an “optometrist appointment.” It was a lighthearted moment in a race filled with twists and turns, showcasing Denny’s ability to handle adversity, both on and off the track, with a touch of wit.
