Chicago: Tires, Rain & Racing Ethics

Dirty Mo Media, SiriusXM
About this episode

Denny Hamlin and Jared Allen are back after a long Sunday in Chicago. Denny explains why he continues to struggle racing in the rain. Racing ethics went out the window during the last few laps (4:20). They also discussed good decision-making when NASCAR told the teams they were racing the clock (15:30). But why didn't NBC move the race up (20:50)?

Josh Berry's caution on lap 51 proved to be a game-changer (25:00). Denny explains what went wrong for Tyler Reddick (26:50) and Bubba Wallace's frustration with Alex Bowman, that culminated in a run-in on the cooldown lap (34:20).

Denny dives into why it's good for the sport to race in Chicago (39:00) before discussing if being friends and co-owners with Michael Jordan has influenced his competitiveness (43:50). 

Will we see more racing against the clock in the future (52:24)? Plus, Alex Bowman's 80-race winless streak is snapped but should not be considered a fluke.
