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 its 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. Carl edwards who moments before was in a position to challenge for the win. Last year in this race, half 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 got to stay on the gas. 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 and tonight. It, youve just got to be careful, 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 front of you. 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. Hamlins success at daytona, the rookie crew chief mike wheeler, my crew chief thinks youre 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. 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 happened there . Well brads still not going to let me in, i learned 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. 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 didnt try to get up there. I just went too far. Understand that. Thanks, carl. Fun while it lasted. Carl edwards. Now tomorrow we will set the front row for the daytona 500 on fox. Tomorrow on fox, daytona 500 qualifying. Catch the sports biggest stars as we set the starting lineup for thursday. And determine the front row for next sundays running of the daytona 500. It all starts tomorrow, 1 00 eastern, 10 00 a. M. Pacific, youll see all of toninits drivers and nearly 20 more hopeful of earning one of the 40 starting positions in the 500. Mike, overtime. Were going to overtime. Overtime nascar style yeah, baby. 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 the rest of the field. 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 dont know if he didnt just lost a little if he goes on the outside, this things over for him. But he didnt. Ended up going back to the inside. Here they come on the outside three wide. Theres the 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 here. White 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 no all at the back. We may make to it the checkered flag. Leaders on the back straightaway. Caution waves. Caution, hell yeah 25 cars start. Eight cars finish. Denny hamlin must still make it around to the checkered flag under reduced 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 cautioiolaps made it happen. Hes feeling good right now. New crew chief. What a way to start off. Three unlimited wins for hamlin. Second most in the history of the sprint unlimited. As coach joe gibbs leads the team prayer. Its hamlins sixth win at and his fifth in speed weeks. It will be the eighth time coach gibbs goes to victory lane in the unlimited. Heres the hey medical on the last lap. Looked like hamlin put a big block on the 27 car. The 20 gets in there behind menard. And then as they got into turn one, looked like they just ran out of room between the 20 and the 1. He was side by side with the 2. Then kind of e 78 in that as well. Woo. One wreck right after another, its amazing. It happens when the 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. He saw an opening there. And then the closing laps of these races as i mentioned before, you dont check up. You dont lift. You cant if youre going to win the race. And its really all about winning. Closes right in front of produce. Yeah, you cant drive your car and the other guys. When the other buy has trouble youre going to hit him and thats going to cause more mess. Gosh. The car in the garage area for heavens sake. The car that won the race is torn up. Whole right side caved in. See how much fuel he has here to do his burnout. Oh, he got Joe Gibbs Racing has won the unlimited four of the last five years. He was very kind to the beautiful grass. He got the memo on the grass. You tear up the grass, youre going to pay for it.

The jordan brand, the greenbrier. Short clips and the fans. Its great to open up with a win. The spotter that told you . Or you sensed the 27 of menard . Well, i mean i knew i when had in my mind what he was going to do. When the cars are closing that fast, youve got to you almost have to anticipate where theyre going to go or else youre going to get wrecked. So luckily it worked out for us. You know, this is a leaderdriven race as weve seen. And luckily we were able to bring it home. Good luck. Looking for his first daytona 500 next weekend. He was second two years ago. Jamie . Joey logano, for a minute i thought it was going to be a photo finish between you and denny. You send up second. Looking back is there anything you would have or could have done differently on the last lap . Id have to watch the replay. I saw the 27, looked like he was going to try to put it three wide, which is a good move on his part. I had to block that. I went to get that push. And then i just seen kyle get really loose behind me. Then there was a lot of the smoke. At that point you lost all your help. The replay, i missed it. Overall im so proud what was that teams done. Shows were picking up where we left off with the shell pennzoil 14. Looking forward to get to the 500. Defending daytona 500 winner, says he has a shot at the pole tomorrow, guys. Thanks jamie.

The third different crew chief in the last three years. Mike wheeler was always with the team. He says this is the last crew chief ill ever have. After this start, i think theyre at a prprty good connection here. Denny loves wheeler. Wheels they call him. Theyve got a great relationship, they complete each others sentences. I talked to denny, he said i dont know what to expect, havent raced since november, how my going to do . Looks like he did pretty good. That move to block the big run paul menard had was amazing.
