Denny Hamlin Defends Roval Chaos: ‘That’s Racing’

Hamlin dismissed race manipulation after his last-lap clash with Ross Chastain at the Roval last Sunday. “It played out naturally,” he said on Actions Detrimental, explaining that his move was strategic, not staged: “My goal was to pass the No. 1. I did, got wiped out, and Joey got in. That’s racing.” He did sympathize with Chastain after his elimination.
