Denny Hamlin on the Pole at Las Vegas
Denny Hamlin will lead the field to the green flag at Las Vegas Motor Speedway on Sunday evening for the South Point 400, as the Round of 8 kicks off from Sin City. Denny is a previous winner at Las Vegas (back in 2021) and has been a constant top-10 threat in the Next Gen era, with five finishes of 11th or better over the last six races at this track. Additionally, Hamlin had the dominant car at Kansas a couple of weeks ago, and that is the sister race track of Las Vegas, so there's no reason to think the No. 11 Toyota will be lacking any speed this weekend. As far as practice goes this weekend, Denny had the sixth-best 10-lap average but ranked a little lower on the longer-run charts--although that could be because of one or two bad laps during the run. With how strong the No. 11 Toyota was at Kansas a couple of weeks ago, it wouldn't be surprising at all to see Hamlin lead early and often, plus compete for the Las Vegas win this weekend.
