Joining us now is NASCAR great Denny
Hamlin. Denny, thank you for joining us.
It's nice to talk to you, but
unfortunately under these circumstances,
not the best, but
you posted on Instagram, my friend, that
we lost our Kobe Bryant. Today we mourn,
forever we remember. Rest in peace,
Kyle. Can you tell us what he meant to
the sport?
I mean, I just know that um
as a race fan, uh every race that uh
he was in was more exciting to watch
than the ones that uh he wasn't. So,
just simply put, he just uh
kept our fans entertained. Uh he kept
our media members on their toes at all
times, and um just as a competitor, I
can tell you
uh there's no way that I would have the
wins that I have had I not had Kyle
Busch as a teammate to push me to be
better.
And speaking of wins, Kyle is one of the
all-time greatest drivers, but you're
right behind him on the list for
all-time NASCAR Cup Series wins. Could
you tell us what made him so good on the
track?
Well, I mean
he just
found speed in ways that you just
couldn't imagine. I mean, I drove the
same race cars as him. I couldn't go as
fast as him.
Uh and and so, he just I remember when
he came to Joe Gibbs Racing
um
you know, in in kind of the mid-2000s,
it just
it just changed
how you got speed out of a race car. His
his race craft was better than the rest.
Uh he knew how to put his car in
positions to make passes that just
seemed physically impossible. So, it
just um
yeah, again, pushing all of us to be
way, way better
um is my main takeaway from being
teammates with him. Yeah, yeah, you two,
you were long-time teammates, but you
also clashed with him at times because
he was known as a hothead. But uh he
came a long way in his career. Can you
Can you tell us about his evolution as a
driver and as a man?
Uh it's just the maturity is
really
a lot of it, you know, he met Samantha.
They had some kids together, which is
fantastic. And that's the most
heartbreaking part about this, right? Is
is, you know, he's been so invested in
his son's future
and career that surely will be ahead of
them.
Um
but, you know, the guy
wasn't always the most mature when I was
teammates with him. He was only a few
years younger, but man, it just seemed
like he was just so brash and he wasn't
for everyone when it came to like his
off-track personality. What was for
everyone was his talent behind the
wheel. And that's why everyone wanted
him. And so,
I just know that he really went through
a time
right around when he was 30 years old
where it was like, man, he started this
family and
it just changed, just like all of us do
that that have kids
one day. And so, it definitely
changed those peaks and valleys of his
emotions, it seemed like. And you had a
more steady Kyle Busch and and really
the best Kyle Busch.
And so, over these last 10 years or so,
11 years
since he had his first kid,
you just um
you saw the evolution of him and he
became a man and he became a great
teammate and, you know,
RCR,
that poor organization had to go through
the death of Dale Earnhardt and now Kyle
Busch and
just can't imagine being in the in the
position that his family and his race
team are in. Yeah, I can't either. And
it seemed like Kyle was just his
authentic self. He didn't hold back for
anything or anyone else. And um do you
have any favorite memories of Kyle you
want to share with us?
I just my first memory with him and my
favorite is
we were at a test. He was at my very
first time he was my teammate. Um and he
said he he walked over to my stall and
he says,
"We're going to see how good you really
are."
And I said, "All right." He was coming
over from Hendrick Motorsports. And um
and at that time we were going to be
testing uh with the same race team. And
we just kept getting in the car. He
would go P1. I'd up him. I'd I'd make a
quicker lap. He'd go out. He'd make a
quicker lap. And we just kept going like
three or four times uh overtaking each
other. And I knew right then I was like,
"Okay, this guy's going to push me
pretty hard to to get the best out of
me." And um there's no doubt, you know,
one of my strengths right now is mile
and a half race tracks. It's because of
Kyle Busch.
I got to watch him and study him. He was
just a master at getting speed out of
race cars
on those types of race tracks.
And um
