NASCAR ALERT: Major Trouble for Kyle Larson After Denny Hamlin’s Shocking Statement Sends Shockwaves Through the Garage
Tensions are boiling in the NASCAR Cup Series after Denny Hamlin made a stunning statement that could spell serious trouble for Kyle Larson and the No. 5 Hendrick Motorsports team.
In a post-race interview following a heated on-track incident at New Hampshire Motor Speedway, Hamlin didn’t hold back, accusing Larson of “crossing the line” with what he described as “reckless and disrespectful” driving in the final laps. The comments come after Larson made aggressive contact with Hamlin while battling for a top-five finish, resulting in Hamlin being forced off the racing line and falling several positions.
“Enough is enough,” Hamlin said. “There’s racing hard, and then there’s racing stupid. What happened out there crossed that line.”
Sources close to Joe Gibbs Racing say Hamlin has since filed a formal complaint with NASCAR officials, demanding a review of Larson’s actions. While no penalties have yet been announced, speculation is rampant that a points deduction, fine, or even a probation ruling could be in play.
Larson, who has been a championship contender all season, was unapologetic after the race. “I’m here to win. I race with intensity. If Denny doesn’t like it, that’s his problem.”
NASCAR has not issued an official statement yet, but a spokesperson confirmed they are “reviewing all footage and team communications related to the incident.”
The growing feud between Larson and Hamlin is fueling headlines and fan debate alike, adding serious drama as the playoffs approach. With tempers flaring and reputations on the line, the next race could be explosive.
