Chat Recap: See What Fans Had To Say About The Wild Texas Race, Denny Hamlin’s Win

Denny Hamlin stepped up when it counted the most.

On a day that saw a wild race, including a middle finger (and penalty) from Kyle Busch, a fight between respected veterans Jeff Gordon and Jeff Burton and a pit crew swap in the middle of the race, Hamlin earned the biggest headline of all.

Hamlin edged Matt Kenseth to win at Texas Motor Speedway, and took over the points lead from Jimmie Johnson. Heading into the final two races, Hamlin now leads Johnson by 33 points (Kevin Harvick is 59 points back).
