Denny Hamlin Eyes Victory at San Diego’s Coronado Street Race

NASCAR veteran Denny Hamlin is gearing up for the inaugural Coronado Street Race, set to transform the waterfront of San Diego into a high‑octane playground. The new Qualcomm Circuit packs 16 tight turns into a 3.4‑mile layout, forcing drivers to rethink braking points and racing lines on a surface that blends urban flair with classic road‑course demands. Hamlin, who boasts 61 victories across his career, hasn't stood atop a road‑course podium since 2016, a drought that adds extra intrigue to his participation in the event. The driver co‑owns 23XI Racing alongside basketball legend Michael Jordan, a partnership that has already yielded a road‑course triumph for teammate Tyler Reddick in Austin, underscoring the organization’s growing competitiveness. Reddick’s recent victory serves as a confidence boost for the team and a reminder that the new San Diego venue could favor a fresh strategy from the 23XI stable. The Coronado Street Race is scheduled for June 21, with practice and qualifying sessions running on the preceding days, giving teams a narrow window to fine‑tune setups for the unique layout.
