“Opportunity Was Actually There”- NASCAR Insider Calls Out JGR Duo for Failing to Capitalize on Kyle Larson’s Low Score

Denny Hamlin and Christopher Bell arrived at Martinsville Speedway knowing they needed to take points away from Kyle Larson. By the end of the afternoon, Hamlin had finished sixth, Bell was 10th, and Larson had somehow strengthened his championship position without having a particularly good race. The Hendrick Motorsports driver finished ninth, scored no stage points and spent part of the afternoon a lap down. Yet, his closest challengers could not turn that difficult afternoon into a meaningful championship gain. Jordan Bianchi and Jeff Gluck set the premise for this in a conversation on Dirty Mo Media.
