Denny Hamlin Starts From The Pole At Homestead
5 years agoJoe Gibbs Racing's Denny Hamlin will start from the pole position in Sunday's Dixie Vodka 400 at Homestead-Miami Speedway. Hamlin is coming off a very uncharacteristic 24th-place finish at Martinsville, but he is very familiar with starting from the pole at Homestead. In his last five Homestead starts, Hamlin won four poles but also failed to finish better than ninth. Hamlin has won a couple of races at Homestead in 2009 and 2013, to go along with 10 top-10s in 15 career starts. Hamlin will be an expensive option in DFS with the potential to lead early laps, but his past trend of fading from the pole should caution players from employing Hamlin in lineups.
