Last week at Gateway we got to see some good first half racing, then a bit of snoozer second half that ended in another win for Denny Hamlin in 2025. Next up we go to a place that Denny Hamlin has won at 4 times in his Cup career, Bristol. Down below you will find different statistics from all of the NASCAR Cup races here at Bristol Motor Speedway ranging from Most Wins to Best Average Finishes by starting position. So read and enjoy these fun fact track stats!
