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.

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.
