"All three of them" : Jordan Fish reveals Denny Hamlin's memorable wins

In a conversation on Dirty Mo Media's Dale Jr. Download podcast, Jordan Fish discussed veteran driver Denny Hamlin's most profound race triumphs.

When asked about Hamlin's memorable wins, Fish quickly mentioned the 2016 Daytona 500 race where the #11 took the checkered flag 0.011 seconds ahead of his teammate, Martin Truex Jr. Notably, this race is the closest finish ever recorded in the Daytona 500's history.

Fish then mentioned the other two Daytona 500 wins, in 2019 and 2020, as memorable ones, saying:

"All three of them, now they're all three different feelings, like the first one with Martin, you know, being like, inches away, and how exciting that was. The second one was also kind of special. And then the one with Ryan Newman, you know, flipping. That was like, so, like, we could even, you know, you can't celebrate, right?"

Hamlin's third Daytona 500 victory in 2020 was recorded as the second closest finish in history in 'the Great American race'. He triumphed over Ryan Blaney by 0.014 seconds in the overtime restart.

Despite all his accolades and dominant performances, Hamlin hasn't etched his name on a Cup Series championship title.

In the just-concluded 2024 NASCAR season, Hamlin secured three wins and 12 top-five finishes. He ended the season at P8 in the final driver's standings.
