NASCAR Results Today: Denny Hamlin DENIED history at Bristol as Kyle Larson dominates

Denny Hamlin was denied a piece of NASCAR history in the Food City 500 on Sunday as Kyle Larson dominated at Bristol Motor Speedway.

Hamlin headed into the weekend looking for his third Cup Series victory in as many weeks and had he achieved it, he would have overtaken Kyle Busch as Joe Gibbs Racing’s most winningest driver. Instead, the No. 11 star remains tied first on 56 JGR wins with Busch, for now.

There was nothing Hamlin could do about Hendrick Motorsports star Larson, though, with the No. 5 driver leading for an incredible 411 of the 500 racing laps. In doing so, Larson becomes the first driver to lead 400-plus laps in back-to-back Bristol races since Bobby Allison in 1972.

In taking his victory, Larson added to his Xfinity Series win at Bristol on Saturday night, only missing out on the weekend sweep after a second-place finish in the Truck Series race on Friday night.

Elsewhere at Bristol, Ty Gibbs came home in third to secure his strongest result of the season, with Chase Briscoe and Ryan Blaney rounding out the top five.

William Byron, Ross Chastain, Christopher Bell, AJ Allmendinger and Austin Dillion all finished inside the top 10.
