Denny Hamlin was all praises while talking about van Gisbergen on his podcast.Hamlin discovered during the podcast that Gisbergen had to drive on the other side of the car than he is used to in Supercars and this definitely strengthened Hamlin's regard for Gisbergen as he recalled his own experience with the issue.Changing driving sides are extremely difficult. This meant that, in addition to adjusting to the Next Gen Cup car, format, racecourse, and racing style, Gisbergen had to switch to the opposite side of the car.&quot;I mean, he went from the one side of the car to the other. I did that when I went to Japan for Toyota, and I ran a GT3 car. It took me forever to get comfortable driving from the other side of the car. It’s just different. It’s just way different. Holy cow! We’re trying to make a point one way or another here,&quot; Denny Hamlin said in his podcast. Regardless of that, Shane van Gisbergen has earned the respect of all NASCAR's greatest, including Denny Hamlin.
