NASCAR Fans Express Concern at Denny Hamlin’s “Concussed” Look as He Admits “It’s Gotten Worse Over Time”

Controversies surrounding the Next Gen cars continue to haunt NASCAR. And the ongoing reports of concussion-like symptoms by NASCAR drivers are a serious issue. However, who would have thought that NASCAR had to deal with a ‘concussed’ Denny Hamlin?

Well, don’t worry because he is fine. He has not wrecked in the field and is enjoying Summers with his daughters. But a recent hilarious tweet posted by Hamlin sent the NASCAR Twittersphere into bursts of laughter. Believing that maybe a concussion has forced the Joe Gibbs Racing driver to wear the crazy hats, NASCAR fans flooded the comment section with some witty responses.

In Hamlin’s tweet, he is wearing a peculiar Disney hat and having pizza with his daughters. And this picture gave the NASCAR fans an opportunity to employ their sarcasm. Some found it extremely funny. While a few others decided to remind NASCAR of the serious safety concerns that Hamlin has been quite vocal about.

Apart from that, it was funnier to see Hamlin admit that his looks are getting worse over time. Below a collage of his images posted by nascarsm on Twitter, Hamlin admitted to his declining sense of style.

Denny Hamlin on Alex Bowman’s injuries

Before the Talladega race, Hendrick Motorsports announced that Alex Bowman would be skipping the weekend race. They revealed that Bowman’s Texas crash has left him with concussions like symptoms. And this raised several questions about NASCAR’s attention to the safety of their drivers.

While referring to these events, Denny Hamlin said; “When it comes to the crash stuff, I’ve asked questions to two different NASCAR people, executives. I can’t get a response. That, to me, makes it even scarier. Man, the disconnect right now between all the parties — NASCAR, the tracks, and all the drivers, it’s tough right now. It’s not a good place.”
