Denny Hamlin Wins His Sixth Pocono Race
4 years agoJoe Gibbs Racing's Denny Hamlin continued his dominance at Pocono Raceway by winning Sunday's Pocono 350. The win is Hamlin's sixth career victory at Pocono, tying him with Jeff Gordon for most all-time wins at the track. In a complete role reversal from yesterday's race, Hamlin and the No. 11 team used a brilliant strategy, outfoxing yesterday's winner, Kevin Harvick. The call allowed Hamlin to jump ahead of the No. 4, after the final round of pit stops, and Hamlin closed the deal. Hamlin also led a race-high 49 laps. Hamlin leads the Cup Series with four wins and will look to carry his momentum to Indianapolis Motor Speedway, a track where he is still looking for his first win.
