Denny Hamlin May Finally Have a Solution to His Sponsorship Woes
What’s Happening? Joe Gibbs Racing’s Denny Hamlin has not been quiet about his sponsorship woes since losing FedEx and Mavis Tires…
NASCAR Cup Series veteran and team owner Denny Hamlin had a small grass fire at his home today after a lawn mower caught fire. Via posts from Hamlin, the fire appears to have been put out quickly with little to no damage to his home. Hamlin uploaded several videos of the incident to his Instagram story.
Hamlin initially gave little to no reasoning as to what caused the fire, only posting a video captioned “Lawnmower caught fire” once it was out.
All seems to be okay for Hamlin since this fire, as he has not posted anything further about the incident.
In his second post on his Instagram Story, Hamlin calmly stated, “My luck has run out.” This is perhaps a reference to Hamlin’s viral casino win this past weekend in Las Vegas. The Joe Gibbs Racing driver went viral after he hit multiple jackpots on slot machines prior to the start of Cup Series activity at the track.
This will be a busy week for Hamlin. In addition to his usual duties as driver, team owner, and content creator, he is set to unveil a new sponsor for his No. 11 ride. Ironically, most expect this sponsor to be Progressive, an insurance provider.

Chris Gabehart has responded to Joe Gibbs Racing’s lawsuit, strongly denying the allegations and calling the claims “false,” “frivolous,” and “retaliatory” in a public statement released this Friday.
After the lawsuit became public, on Thursday, Gabehart spoke out for the first time, stating that he did not share any confidential JGR information with Spire Motorsports or any third parties and that he intends to prove that in court. He also said a third-party forensic review of his personal devices found no evidence supporting the accusations, adding that JGR declined an offer to examine Spire’s systems before filing suit.
“Yesterday afternoon, Joe Gibbs Racing filed a lawsuit claiming — falsely — that I shared JGR confidential information with Spire Motorsports and/or other unnamed third parties… I feel compelled to speak out today and forcefully and emphatically deny these frivolous and retaliatory claims.”
Gabehart said he will address the matter further in a formal legal response in the coming days.
