Denny Hamlin highlights the need for good pit stops and strategy in Texas

The #11 Joe Gibbs Racing driver lines up 11th on the grid for the AutoTrader EchoPark Automotive 400 at Texas Motor Speedway, having narrowly missed out on the top-10 starting position.

Ahead of the race weekend, Denny Hamlin emphasized the lack of passing on the track and stressed the importance of good pit stops and strategy to make up for the track position.

He was quoted by Speedwaydigest.com as saying:

"Texas is typically pretty tough to pass on, so I feel like we will need to have a good qualifying spot and then just execute on pit road. My guys have done an amazing job on pit road this season, so we'll definitely lean on them a little bit to help gain or just maintain track position and then we'll need to have the right strategy to be up front at the end."

Hamlin has made three trips to the victory lane at Texas Motor Speedway, with his last win dating back to 2019.

The AutoTrader Echopark Automotive 400 is scheduled this Sunday, April 14, with the green flag set to drop at 3:43 PM ET.
