We've won the first three playoff races. there's seven to go; let's win them all," he said.Denny Hamlin leads the Cup Series playoff points table with a 26-point buffer above the cutoff line.

The Bass Pro Shops Night Race was held on Saturday, September 13, 2025, and Bell took home his 13th career win.The #20 Toyota Camry XSE driver began the race from P9. Meanwhile, the RFK Racing driver secured 18th place in the qualifying session for the main 500-lap event. Despite having a mid-pack start, Keselowski led 33 laps in the race and held the lead until the last restart.Later, with four laps to go in the 500-lap race, Christopher Bell headed towards the lead, and Keselowski pulled a classic old-school move on him in the closing laps of the race. The RFK driver bumped into Bell from the rear, but instead of spinning him out, he gave him a straight bump, ultimately crossing the finish line 0.343 seconds ahead of him.Reflecting on the incident, Denny Hamlin expressed his views [00:05]:"I thought as hard as Brad hit him, I mean, I thought he wrecked him. I could not believe he had the balls to hit him that hard. Bell missed turns one and two; that's what allowed him to even get close. That just tells you the advantage that leaders got. When second place hits you that hard and it doesn't even move your car hardly, yikes."The first race of the Round of 12, the Mobil 1 301, is scheduled at New Hampshire Motor Speedway on Sunday, September 21, 2025, at 2 p.m. ET. Additionally, Denny Hamlin will compete in the event with two of his crew members suspended after the Bristol penalty.
