Denny Hamlin

Q. Denny, what's going on inside?

DENNY HAMLIN: Yeah, nothing I can do different. Prepared as good as I could coming into the weekend. My team gave me a fantastic car. Just didn't work out. I was just praying that no caution. Had one there.

What can you do? Just not meant to be.

Q. You ran away from everybody. The car had speed. The caution came out. What went through your head?

DENNY HAMLIN: I thought still okay. We took four tires. I thought that definitely was the right call. Just so many cars took two there. Obviously put us back.

Team did a fantastic job. They prepared a championship car. Just didn't happen.

Q. Can you do this again?

DENNY HAMLIN: I'll try. I got a couple more shots at it. Man, if you can't win that one, I don't know which one you can win.
