Cup results, points after Michigan as Denny Hamlin scored the third win of 2025

Denny Hamlin led only twice for five rounds on Michigan International Speedway, but the final four were those who mattered when he achieved his third win of the 2025 season and 57th of his career.

Hamlin, who also achieved successive victories in Martinsville and Darlington, is linked to Kyle Larson and Christopher Bell for the Nascar Cup series victory this season.

It is the ninth season of Hamlin with at least three wins, and he became the 18th driver with at least three wins on Michigan (his 11th lane with at least three cup victories). On 5.104 days since his victory in June 19, 2011 at the 2-Mile Oval, Hamlin scored the longest gap between wins on a track since Kyle Busch won in Talladega in 2023 (his first win there since 2008, a series of 5.474 days.

Joe Gibbs Racing has won his first win on Michigan since August 2015 with Matt Kenseth. The team has six wins between Bell and Hamlin this season.

Despite the fact that he no longer had fuel and finished 28th, William Byron still leads the regular season standings with 41 points over Hendrick Motorsports teammate Kyle Larson.
