Denny Hamlin to have minor knee surgery Wednesday

HOMESTEAD, Fla. – A week after vowing revenge, Denny Hamlin didn’t exactly back off his threat to even the score with rival Brad Keselowski.

Speaking Friday after his qualifying lap at Homestead-Miami Speedway, Hamlin said while he won’t go out of the way to ruin Keselowski’s day with a wreck, the time has passed for apologies.
 
“People talk about me versus him, but people don’t understand – I’ve been wrecked four times by him!” Hamlin said. “I’ve not wrecked him any. So it’s a one-sided scale that eventually has to even up. Maybe not fully, but that scale has got to tip a little bit. I’ve gotten the short end of the deal every time.”
 
The latest incident came in last week’s Nationwide Series race at Phoenix. After Hamlin bumped Keselowski, the JR Motorsports driver responded by spinning Hamlin.
 
“He’s wrecked our cars, he’s put our fabricators through hell,” Hamlin said. “And it’s not just us – there’s four guys at Memphis he wrecked.
 
“He’s got the speed and everything, but he thinks the way he does things is the right way, and truthfully, it’s not. Anybody inside this garage that knows anything about this sport will tell you that it’s not.”
 
Following last week’s race, Hamlin and Keselowski spoke at the Nationwide Series hauler. But Hamlin grew even more frustrated with the younger driver and was dissatisfied with the result of the conversation.
 
“The thing is with Brad, I’ve given him plenty of opportunities to say, ‘Sorry’ or ‘I shouldn’t have done that,’” Hamlin said. “And he’s just hard-headed enough to where he thinks that’s the way he should do things, so you gotta ... look at the scales.”
 
Hamlin praised NASCAR for not penalizing Keselowski last week – Keselowski was called to the NASCAR hauler for a conversation but was not put on probation for aggressive driving. Hamlin, who is driving for CJM Racing on Saturday, said drivers should be able to handle things themselves.
 
“I think NASCAR knows that this is a self-policing sport,” he said. “I applaud them for not doing anything with Brad last week. Let us fix it. Drivers are going to fix it – if I don’t, somebody else is.”
 
As Hamlin spoke, Keselowski’s team owner Dale Earnhardt Jr. stood nearby speaking with a group of reporters. Hamlin theorized that when Earnhardt Jr. and Keselowski part ways after this season, Keselowski will no longer be given a free pass by some of the hardcore Earnhardt Jr. supporters.
 
“He gets away with a lot of things because he does drive for Junior, ultimately,” Hamlin said. “The fans that approve of him are diehard Junior fans that kind of are going to stick by you, no matter what you do, whether it’s right or wrong.
 
“And with that element being gone next year, then you’re going to get the negativity from the fans. He already has the negativity from the interior of the sport, whether it be the crew guys or the drivers or the team owners – that part of it is already there. But he’ll start seeing repercussions from fans once he gets out of the 88 car.”
 
So are fans tuning in for the Nationwide race guaranteed to see another chapter of the Hamlin/Keselowski rivalry? Hamlin left that up in the air.
 
“I’m not going to go out of my way to ruin his day or anything like that,” he said. “But believe me, every time he looks in his mirror he is going to think, ‘This guy behind me owes me.’ And sometimes that goes [further] than just taking a guy out when he expects it.”

    Well, that's one side of the story. Whenever Hamlin shares his thoughts I want to ask him what color is the sun in his universe. His memory is, shall we say, selective.

    Keselowski has some rough edges, sure, but he doesn't whine about every little slight he suffers on the track like Hamlin does. Denny has skills as a driver, but he is so unpleasant as a person I can't help but root against him.

    I guess if K gets near Ham, Ham will put him in the wall. I may be channeling Days of Thunder or something, I don't have any beef with Ham I kinda feel sorry for him with all his bad luck still not much of a fan though to much whine but I wouldn't mind some controversy. We need some excitement since NASCAR has taken most of it away.

    ah yes, Denny Hamlin, the wisest man in Nascar. Truly getting tired of him telling everyone how things should be done. Does anyone else remember his "how we roll in Cup" comment after a Nationwide race. Dude you have been in Cup a whole 4 seasons, relax. You are NOT King Denny. I want guys like this to end up in the fence for 36 consecutive weeks. Just another prima donna.

    I think I can find a leftover pacifier from my young niece for Denny to suck on. He is the biggest cry baby in the CUP garage. Certainly Brad has been a bit too aggressively here lately but dang I'd much rather cheer on a hard charger than someone who is okay running in the top 15 to accummulate points.

    Denny said that he's been dumped 4 times by Brad, so he needs to stand up for himself, wouldn't you? I would stand up for myself, I'd start by kicking the ski out of keselowski like a Jimmy Spencer. Then you'all would love Denny, now wouldn't ya. I can tell that most of the posts on here are anti-Hamlin, but if it were you getting wrecked how would you feel?

    #10 I remember quite well when Denny slammed into the side of Brad's car before a restart and damaged his car enough to change the outcome of the race. Denny stick to the Sprint cup and don't expect favors just because you are a Sprint cup driver.

    Both of these drivers have done their share of beating and banging. I'm just anxious to see if Denny is going to do something or just running that mouth. You gotta love the part where Hamlin said. "When he looks in his mirror (lol) he will know this guy owes me. That's funny. If Denny is going to do something he better make it good because Brad will get him again if he don't take him out. If Brad sees Denny behind him, he may let him by and take him out. HMMMMM I wonder which way it will be. It should be exciting anyway. I just hope they keep showing those two drivers and not the NW Championship winner because most people are not tuning in to see him get his trophy! Once KB starts his car he has it made! I hope these two at the OK Corral will make it a little interesting! hehe I don't think either one will do anything to the other one myself. I guess we will see......

But Reuitiman and a few others i can think of let him get away with it when he runs them over. Dimmy is a joke and he is always making mistakes on the track. Kyle Petty tried to slap some sense into him and that did not last. Dimmy the jokester is all I see in this guy! What a joke!!

    It's sad to see so many narrow-minded people in one place. I completely understand Brad's frustration, but Denny's gone out of his way to try to help the kid learn that what he's doing won't cut it in the Cup series. In the long run, Denny's given him way more than he's deserved and now it seems that Brad has done everything he can to burn that bridge. I'm betting that down the road, Brad will much more likely regret his actions rather than be proud of them. When you look at the big picture, Brad's the one that's losing the most in this battle. One thing's for certain, Brad will learn a lot from all this. He's got a lot of talent so hopefully he hasn't dug his hole too deep. At least for us, we get to enjoy all this on the sidelines. Even though the trophy is sewn up, this might just be the most interesting race of the season!

    #22 why put up a ring in the darage? Let's do it in the street. Brad would whip Denny's a** before Denny even knew that the fight had started, Brad is a street fighter, Denny is a gym fighter.

    Well, Denny DID drive, didn't he??? He did verygood spinning Krashlouski, BUT he NEEDS to be put into the wall like he has done to so many others. I am sure after seeing how DENSE he is, he hasn't learned from THIS little incident and will need more 'teachin''; and judging from the approval Denny got from the pit crews yesterday, Krash WILL get more teachin'. Atta boy Denny. Forget the stupid Nation people who are on you, you did well. THEY are the whiners.

    Sorry number 13, but you evidently know little about racing. The GARAGE is for working on the cars. The track is for beating and banging; (for amateurs). The track is for RACING IF you are a professional. - - - Trouble is SOME of you "fisticuff" people don't have the mentality to get beyond your hands. REAL racing is in the brains, NOT in the hands. GROW UP! Then come back and post.

    Anyone know when the race will be replayed (ESPN2 or any other network)? Darn cable was out here from noon yesterday until about 4:00 am today. Ironically it was the result of a car accident that took out the service.

    It was replayed sometime after midnight, unfortunately the DVR was only able to catch the celebration part. I want to see the whole race! Sounds like it was very interesting.

    Mr "Selective Memory" Hamlin needs to grow up and quit whining. When you live by the sword you die by the sword.

    This should have been over two races ago but Hamlin is too full of himself to agree to a truce and stand by it. Brad has a right to defend himself if Hamlin persists. NASCAR will keep an eye on things but they love the controversy.

    Denny needs to lighten up. I guess he has forgotten the wrecks he caused in his first years. Plus I think I remember Denny taking out Brad several times this year. Brad will settle down. You have to remember Brad was trying to be second in points. Denny was just running a few races this year. If Denny has a problem maybe he needs to just race in sprint cup.
