Denny Hamlin ranked as the most popular NASCAR driver in Arizona.

Denny Hamlin, the beloved NASCAR driver hailing from Tampa, Florida, has claimed victory in 51 out of 650 races. He is a member of Joe Gibbs Racing and is also a co-owner of 23XI Racing alongside the legendary Michael Jordan. In 2024, he was honored with the title of Arizona’s top driver.

Hamlin was the favorite driver in two states, including South Carolina. However, he trailed behind national leaders Chase Elliott and Kyle Larson, who were the top picks in eight states each.

Hamlin’s primary goal is to claim victory at Daytona on Feb. 18, although he would also be satisfied with a win in Phoenix in mid-March.

Hamlin is considered one of the top contenders at Daytona in the Arizona betting apps, with +1200 odds, tying him as a co-favorite with Ryan Blaney, Brad Keselowski, and Joey Logano. He is also ranked fourth in the NASCAR Cup Series Championship odds at +800.
