Kyle Petty prevê que Denny Hamlin será lembrado como um dos melhores pilotos de corrida da história, independentemente de sua falta de um campeonato da NASCAR.

Denny Hamlin, a highly experienced NASCAR driver without a championship title, once again showcased his exceptional racing skills at Bristol last Sunday. His victory in the Food City 500 was attributed to his expertise in effectively managing tires. This outstanding performance earned him praise from Kyle Petty, a NASCAR race analyst and son of the renowned driver. Petty considers Hamlin one of the most respected drivers in the sport’s history.

During the race at Bristol, Hamlin demonstrated a masterclass in preserving tire condition under challenging circumstances, as only five drivers managed to finish on the same lap as the leader. Despite a contentious past with Hamlin, Petty acknowledged the 43-year-old driver as a NASCAR Hall of Famer and a deserving candidate for the list of all-time greats.

Petty described Hamlin as an artist behind the wheel, highlighting his exceptional driving skills. Despite not winning a championship title, Hamlin’s impressive record of 52 wins since his debut in 2007 solidifies his place in the NASCAR Hall of Fame.

While Goodyear, the tire manufacturer, claimed to have used the same tire compounds and formulas as the previous year, Hamlin expressed skepticism about their effectiveness at Bristol. After the race, Hamlin urged Goodyear to thoroughly investigate the issues with the tire compounds used during the weekend.

Hamlin emphasized the importance of determining the root cause of the unexpected tire wear and addressing the rapid degradation. He called on Goodyear, based in Ohio, to take immediate action and rectify the situation to avoid further damage to the brand’s reputation.

In response to the high tire wear observed at Bristol, Goodyear has initiated an investigation. The tire manufacturer is eager to solve the tire problem before the next race at COTA, as it aims to protect the brand’s reputation from further stains.
