Denny Hamlin, Driver of the No. 11 Sport Clips Toyota Camry TRD
What is your mindset about going to Homestead this weekend?
“We’re looking forward to this weekend. Obviously, we would have liked to have finished last week a little better to be in a better spot in the points, but we feel good about Homestead. It’s a track we’ve had some success at and feel like we can run up front and score points. That’s the name of the game right now is just qualify up front, score points in the stages and finish as good as we can. It’d be awesome to win the race and lock ourselves in, but if we can’t do that, we need to maximize our day.”
