## Resource

Denny Hamlin’s third straight win at Pocono has turned the NASCAR championship race into a white-knuckle showdown, slashing the gap to Tyler Reddick down to just 19 points. Byron finishes third despite road course struggles, while Ross Chastain’s gutsy climb from 24th to top ten proves smart strategy wins. Ryan Preece’s late-race fuel misfire cost him dearly, and both van Gisbergen and Logano are lap down after a massive wreck. With San Diego’s street course looming — followed by Sonoma — the road to the title just got a whole lot more unpredictable. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
