The #11 driver has scored one win and five top-five finishes in the 2023 season and stands at sixth place in the points table with 538 points. He is one of the favorites to win this weekend and will be excited to see the #11 Toyota Camry with Coca-Cola livery shining in the sun.
“It’s just different. It’s just way different” – Denny Hamlin praises Shane van Gisbergen for winning the inaugural Chicago Street race
Three-time Supercars champion Shane van Gisbergen broke a 60-year-old NASCAR record last week in Chicago Street Course by winning a NASCAR race on debut. Denny Hamlin, recently praised Gisbergen for the historic win on his podcast show.
In his podcast, Hamlin said:
“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.”
