Hamlin targets wins as Chase for the Championship reshapes 2007 NASCAR
Denny Hamlin, currently second in the 2007 Nextel Cup standings, seeks wins to anchor a potential Chase success at New Hampshire. The revamped Chase expands to 12 drivers with a 5000 point base and 10 bonus points per victory, heightening the value of victories for Hamlin and rivals like Jeff Gordon and Jimmie Johnson. Hamlin trails after no wins this season, while Joe Gibbs Racing teammates Gordon and Johnson face penalties that impact their postseason pace. The New Hampshire race offers a chance to tighten the gap, as Hamlin previously led Phoenix before a pit road incident derailed his run. Gordon and Johnson are part of a dominant Hendrick-Gibbs dynamic in a Car of Tomorrow era reshaping the title race.
