Our Reading
The habit gets a new name. NASCAR drivers are known for their skills on the track, but it seems like they’re also skilled at getting involved in wrecks. Denny Hamlin’s win at Michigan was impressive, but it’s hard to ignore the fact that several top drivers, including Tyler Reddick and Chase Elliott, were taken out by crashes. It’s just another day in the life of a NASCAR driver, where a win can be just as elusive as a wreck. And Hamlin’s victory is just a reminder that in NASCAR, you’re only as good as your last lap.
