| News: Hamlin started his No. 11 FedEx Express Toyota in seventh position in the All-Star Challenge and battled with the handle on his car back in traffic. He would come down pit road prior to the final 10-lap segment in ninth and his FedEx Crew would give him two more spots allowing him to restart in seventh. Hamlin would manage to pick up an additional spot on the final laps to finish sixth, dennyhamlin.com reports. | Impact: Although the No. 11 team did improve over the race, it wasn't the outing or finish that Hamlin was looking for in the All-Star race. The Joe Gibbs Racing star struggled with the handling on his Toyota and never had the speed of other drivers finishing in the Top 5. The lessons learned should go a long way towards improving and preparing Hamlin for this week's Coca-Cola 600 at the same Charlotte oval.(RotoWire, ) |

| News: Hamlin finished second in the Bojangles' Southern 500 at Darlington Raceway Saturday night. | Impact: In his first full race since the Fontana back injury, Hamlin drove the No. 11 Toyota to a runner-up finish. He was a fixture in the Top 10 all night long at the Darlington oval. The effort was his second Top-5 finish of the season. Hamlin moves up five spots to 26th-place in the overall driver standings.(RotoWire, ) |

| News: After running just 24 laps last week at Talladega, Hamlin says he is fully healed and prepared to run the full 500 miles Saturday night at Darlington Raceway, SPEEDtv reports. | Impact: There are a lot of storylines going into Darlington weekend, but probably the biggest is the full return of Hamlin to the No. 11 Toyota. After a start-and-depart at Talladega this past weekend, the Joe Gibbs Racing star is ready to go the full distance in Saturday night's Bojangle's Southern 500. Hamlin brings excellent stats to the table at this South Carolina oval, but his healing back, long layoff and any rust associated with it is a bit concerning.(RotoWire, ) |
