Im not i dont know if he can handle a lot of overtime. I think were pretty optimistic were going to have any cars left to do overtime. Lets check with vince. Jeff gordon described it as bumper cars, kyle. Whatd you see out there . Not much lace for you to go. No, i seen the 19 and the 2 really fighting for a spot. For my Vantage Point thats all i could see. I could tell we were going to wreck. I tried to check up a little bit. Then its on from behind me. But nothing else you can do from there, i guess vr itt funny when the guys behind you get through the wreck and theyre able to go on the rest of the way. I hated for our m m camry still pushing to 13, working really good together. I was going to push him to see if i couldnt get farther, give ourselves a chance to win. Hopefully benefit our teammates can do it. Thanks, kyle. Thanks, tell mates denny hamlin and and matt kenseth running first and fourth. Wow, a lot of damage there. Wow. Before was in a position to challenge for the win. Last year in thi race, halff the field ended up wrecked in the garage. And we were hoping not to have a repeat of that tonight. However, thats pretty much where we are. Well im not going to say anything about the attrition rate anymore. Like you said, business picked up. You just become so aggressive and you cant let out the throttle. Youve gototto stay on the gas. S. If that means pump along guy, trying to push him forward so you can go forward, sometimes it pays off. When it doesnt, hello down the straightaway, thats kind of been a staple of daytona racing for a long time. And tonight. It has been and you can do it, youve just got to be carerel, make sure youre squared up on that bumper. If they start to weave back and forth youve got to get off of that bumper of the person in we may have been hopeful but the reality is, im not surprised. I expected this to happen in this race. I did too. Lets join matt with Denny Hamlins crew chief. Anner jeer for much of kenny hamlins success at daytona, the rookie crew chief mike wheeler, my crew chief thinks youre about good to go on fuel. What do you think looking at your calculations . I hope larry macks right. I think we can do this one. If we get extra time here, might come up short. Which kind of stinks. Hes running good, were happy to be here. Describe the excitement and the nerves. Your first time especially in a situation like this. So far, so good. Not too bad. Luckily its a nonpoints race and you can have fun. Hopefully well get back to victory lane. Good luck. Thank you. Heres vince. A little bit frustrated, would elshow you the replay with carl edwards. Whatd you feel like hapapned there . Well brads still not that. No, im kidding. From the replay i saw, looked like thats pretty much my fault. I stuck it in this here, highrisk maneuver. I thought, okay. Weve got a shot. I knew i had to get in front of brad. He got a little bit more of a run i thought. I could feel him. I shouldnt have come up that far, thats my fault. We came down here to win this race. Had a lot of fun, learned a bunch. Sorry to the guy whose car i tore up. Like to end them something. Man. Just having fun. I dont know. Thats the kind of race it is. I wouldnt feel right if i didit try to get up there. I just went too far. Understand that. Thanks, carl. Fun while it lasted. Carl edwards.

All right, here heres newt rule. Theyll wave the green flag at start finish as usual. And if it is a clean restart and the leader makes it around to the overtimeline on the back straightaway without the caution flag waving, then the next flag, yellow or checkered, will end the race. If the leader doesnt get to the overtime line before the caution waves the line will back up and do it again. Again flag in overtime. Denny hamlin, joey logano, and look how organize the outside lane is. A little bit better. See if that pays off for the 22 and the 20. Larson fell way back down. Shifted gears, i dt know if he didnt just lost a little momentum, i guess. If he goes on the outside, this things over for him. But he didnt. Ended up going back to the inside. Pere they come on the outside three wide. E. Thereethe overtime line. We made it to the line. Can we make it to three more . Can we make it back around . 42 going to the top of the 20. 42 first to recover. The 22 and 11 being side by side its anybodys race to the line. We could have a photo finish hhe. W wte flag this time. Hamlin back to the front. One thing i bet you hamlin doesnt do is go below that yellow line when he comes down here for the win. Wow. Whoa whoa. No all at the back. Checkered flag. Leaders on the back straightaway. Coming hard. Caution waves. Its over. Caution, hell yeah 25 cars start. Eight cars finish. Denny hamlin must still make it around to the checkered flag under r rduced speed. And he will be the sprint unlimited winner for the third time in 11 tries. What a great game hamlin, checkered flag, wins the sprint unlimited over logano great job, great job. Well, well done, man. 21 caution laps made it happen. Hes feeling good right now. New crew chief.

One wreck right after another, its amazing. It happepe when t t 11 blocked the 27s run, the 20 was behind him, stalled them out a little bit. The 1 car had momentum coming to the center.
