Denny Hamlin has been impressed by Hendrick Motorsports rival Chase Elliott recently after he skyrocketed to the top of the NASCAR Cup Series points following a monster run. Elliott booked his spot in the playoffs with a win at Atlanta late last month, but his victory came amid a consistent run of top-ten finishes.

Elliott finished third and fifth before taking the chequered flag in his home State. He finished 16th in Chicago but bounced back to third at Sonoma, followed by sixth at Dover, which Hamlin won to take his fourth victory of 2025.

“Six weeks ago, he was 10th to 15th every week and then would finish in the top 10 because attrition and whatever, and now he’s leading,” Hamlin said about Elliott. “A lot of it is [William] Byron’s had a very tough couple months. All of us guys at the top, there was three or four of us that had major issues. Chase doesn’t have those.”

Hamlin’s comments follow after Elliott, who started on pole, was in a prime position to win. The 29-year-old dominated 238 of the 407 laps, but poor pit stops saw Elliott lose control of the race.

“To me it felt like one of his stronger performances,” Hamlin added. “…I just feel as though Chase is one of those guys that leads 100-200 laps in races, right? He’ll get you really good finishes and he’ll get you some wins, but it’s not dominating.”

Elliott clawed his way up the Cup Series rankings after being over 100 points off top spot. “He’s made a massive run, and it’s not just because of this one week,” Hamlin said. “I’ve just feel like they’ve turned the corner, and they are stronger now than what they were.”

Elliott was proud of his team’s performance, battling the weather and other challenges in the race. “Been really proud of the effort all day,” Chase Elliott said to TNT Sports during a weather delay in the final stage.

“Couple little hiccups here and there, but had a nice recovery to get back to the lead and didn’t want to see that caution. I was hoping I was settling in for the last run of the day, but it’s part of it. It can change really fast.”

DON’T MISS:

A jack issue played its part in costing Elliott from competng for the win. “You know you’re still early enough in the event at that point that there’s still a lot of time to recover,” Elliott said.

“It’s not all sunshine and rainbows all the time, so you just have to deal with whatever comes your way, and we had an issue come our way and I felt like we’ve dealt with it well.”

SO EXCITED TO, YOU KNOW, GO OUT THERE AND COMPETE WITH HIM. T-MINUS TWO MONTHS UNTIL NASCAR ROARS BACK INTO LOUDON RACE WEEKEND SEPTEMBER 19TH TO 21ST. IT WILL BE A NASCAR PLAYOFF ROUND. TONIGHT, A FEW OF THE BEST DRIVERS IN THE SPORT WERE AT NEW HAMPSHIRE MOTOR SPEEDWAY. TWO TIME NEW HAMPSHIRE WINNERS CHRISTOPHER BELL AND JOEY LOGANO, PLUS ROSS CHASTAIN, TOOK PART IN A GOODYEAR TIRE TEST. RACERS WENT AROUND THE MAGIC MILE TO FIGURE OUT WHICH TIRES TO USE FOR THE BIG SEPTEMBER RACE. IT IS CRAZY THE DIFFERENCE THAT TIRES CAN MAKE. LIKE WE WENT THROUGH A COUPLE TIRES THAT WERE SECONDS DIFFERENT ON THE TRACKS, AND THIS IS WHERE I FELL IN LOVE WITH THE SPORT WAS RIGHT HERE. SO AS YOU CAN IMAGINE, THERE’S A LOT OF REALLY SPECIAL MEMORIES FOR ME HERE, WHETHER IT’S SITTING IN THE GRANDSTANDS STARTING MY FIRST RACE, WINNING MY FIRST RACE. IT’S ALL HAPPENED HERE IN LOUDON. I LOOK FORWARD TO COMING BACK.
