Denny Hamlin had a near-miss in yesterday's Homestead race that greatly diminishes his chances of making the Championship Four at Phoenix. He ultimately finished third despite taking the lead from his driver Tyler Reddick on the final restart with seven laps remaining. On the penultimate lap, Ryan Blaney took the lead from Hamlin as Reddick swept around him for second place before Reddick overtook Blaney in the final corner on the last lap to win. The finish left him 18 points behind William Byron for the final transfer spot in the Championship Four and 11 points behind Kyle Larson. Since they are likely to score a lot of points at Martinsville after finishing 1-2 in the spring, Hamlin will likely need to win at Martinsville to advance to the Championship 4, but given his record there, it's definitely possible.--Sean Wrona - RotoBaller
