What Speed TV analyst Kyle Petty said about NASCAR driver Denny Hamlin before Sunday's race
Kyle Petty:
“I think Denny’s a good race car driver -- really solid race car driver -- and he’s been banged up numerous times this year. We go to California. We can go to a lot of race tracks --Dover -- that hit he took up there. Honest to gosh, though, he didn’t have a shot at making the Chase, though. I’m sorry. He just didn’t. He was so far out. You can’t compete with teams like Jimmie Johnson and those guys and sit out five or six weeks. I think since that time now, he’s started to talk a lot. He’s talked about being the face of Joe Gibbs Racing. I think he’s got a little bit of the ‘BK (Brad Keselowski) syndrome’ in him right now. He’s not relevant to the sport right now as far as the Chase and what’s going on in the Chase and winning the championship. He can win the next four or five races, but it’s not going to change the championship this year, and it’s not going to change the Chase. It is what it is and he needs to focus on next year, get his body back together and come back and have a shot at winning next year.”
Denny needs to start saving money........he's going to need it in about 2 years because he will not make the money he does now. Start flying coach.......
ReplyDeleteKyle, again is right on the money with his comments. He was right about Danica, and again he's right about Denny. Even Sirius radio show Speedway made the comment that when Denny came back after his injury, it would extremely hard to make the chase. It was possible, but not probable. That's what I like about Kyle, he tells it like it is, without sugar coating it to satisfy NASCAR, or anyone else.
