Denny Hamlin comments from victory lane

“She’s full,” Denny Hamlin told Prime from victory lane while speaking on fiancée Jordan Fish.

“I kinda had a rule. I was thinking about, what is the cut off point? I told them, that if she goes into labor in the first 50 laps, I’ll get out.”

“After that, I felt like the race is only going to go another hour-and-a-half, two-hours. An hour-and-a-half home, that’s four hours.”

“I felt like I could probably make it. I was thinking about asking, right after stage one, ‘Am I good to stay?’ “

“But, she’s hanging tough. She’s a week overdue.”
