Why Is Anyone Surprised?

Joey Logano’s dominant win at North Wilkesboro shouldn’t have surprised anyone… at least according to Denny Hamlin. On this episode of Actions Detrimental with Denny Hamlin, Denny explains why the No. 22 team had the car to beat, what separated Logano from the rest of the field, and why his performance was a sign of things to come at a track like North Wilkesboro Speedway. He also breaks down his own battle with Logano, the moment he thought the No. 22 might be vulnerable, and the late-race strategy call that nearly changed the outcome. The NASCAR Cup Series returned to North Wilkesboro for its first points-paying race in 30 years, and the crew dives into everything from the racing throughout the field to Carson Hocevar’s battle with Denny, pit road chaos involving Alex Bowman, Tyler Reddick, Kyle Larson, and Connor Zilisch, and whether North Wilkesboro delivered the type of racing fans want to see. Plus, Denny reacts to the latest Playoff picture, the battle around the cutline, NASCAR’s upcoming Daytona changes, the new practice format, and shares stories from his trip to the fishing expo.
