Do you enjoy Denny Hamlin playing the villain?
To be honest, I don’t mind any NASCAR Driver Playing The Villain, but I do think Denny Hamlin makes sense to have The Spot of The NASCAR Villain In My Opinion.
Yes, 100%. ESPECIALLY Wrecking Chase Elliott, And Criticizing The Gen-6 Car. AKA, The Greatest Stock Car Of All Time.
Yes, because in any entertainment there needs to be somebody distasteful to beat
Been a fan of hamlin since his rookie season, it's fun rooting for a villain
@@GalaticalSpacedudeExactly why I like him
I will always respect a driver who empresses the villain role. It’s like they’re saying yeah “I’m wrong and I don’t give a fuck”
That’s fair in some cases, like Kyle Busch, who was a sort of likeable bad guy because he was a funny and ostentatious bad guy. But Hamlin shows poor character on and off the track. That’s your opinion though, I’ll respect that
@randomchannel6008 I see your point. There some times where Hamlin just acts like a hypocritical baby.
He's shown such poor character, he now has the longest running primary sponsor since Jeff Gordon did. 20 years with FedEx as his primary sponsor. So he's doing something right behind the scenes. @@randomchannel6008
Honestly Denny Hamlin is a great villain for Nascar, he actively plays into it, instead of pretending otherwise (Logano)
If he actually wins a title the fan reaction will be surreal
First off Denny’s never winning a title at this point. I’ve just accepted it (I had him as one of my favourites to win the title from 2016-21)
Secondly I think Logano tried playing into it a little but he seems to have the mindset of being nice on track but chaotic on track
@@JackLikesTrackhouse
I think Logano is more of an annoyance, rather than despised like Hamlin
I’d give Hamlin a chance across a full-season (he can be consistent) but not this format
He's having his best start to a season in a long time. Not just a pair of wins, but he's led more laps than anyone in NASCAR this season. So I wouldn't say he's not winning at one. When you look at the metics, 42 is about the peek age for NASCAR when it comes to experience and ability. @@JackLikesTrackhouse
@@jamiethornton6101 Skeptical though on Denny Hamlin pulling off a Bobby Allison.
Fun Fact : How he won those 2 Pocono races in a row, he practiced on NASCAR Racing 2003 season a racing simulator so he could have a feel of the track
duh thats how you become a nascar driver
and everey does that dummy
Denny's not a villain. People may give him that title, but that doesn't mean he is, Denny is a driver I've watched for YEARS, I respect him for not only not giving a shit about what fans think, but also being dominant with it!
If anything, he's a hero. He's just doing what Nascar used to be, bumping, dumping, banging, bumping, it's just called racing
yup he is and his cousin have a lung disease he does a lot for that i have that to. and he meet me in the hospiltol when i had something in 2013 hes my hero people needs to deal with that and if you don't like denny but you like joe gibbs racing you are not a real jgr fan ok
@@zackerykoroskenyi2745 That's what I'm talking about! JGR! JGR! JGR!
He is what the sport needs. I can’t stand when people talk bad about him like he has no idea what is going on in the sport. Denny is a team owner has the most wins besides Kyle on the grid and no is even close to him right now Denny is speaking for the people and I can’t stand the stupid fans that think chase Elliot is good for the sport. At least Denny is trying to put nascar out in the world again he is willing to do just about anything they ask him to do. While chase you will only see him on race day and that’s normally in the car and if it’s not in the car it’s just a sponsor vomit promo. We need more Dennys and less chases.
@@dedo7326 Yeah, Denny and Kyle are like the two we NEED! Kyle for actually coming forward and showing his displeasure for Nascar not giving a s*** for many things, and Denny for being reasonable and just doing what Nascar is... racing!
Hamlin just shoves clean drivers into the wall and acts like it was an accident. The guy is a fraud. Everyone races him clean and he always runs out of talent and has to be a dirty prick. It’s why he’ll never win a championship.
average 2005 chase for the cup playthrough
Harvick - the closer
Hamlin - the choker
He’s now one of my favourites
Denny hamlin is the hero. WE ARE THE VILLIAN!
I became a fan of Denny Hamlin in 2017 before the whole Chase Elliott feud, as my first race was the summer New Hampshire race. For me it's kind of a shame he's gotten like this, but Nascar needs drivers like it. Kyle Busch, Joey Logano, and Brad Keselowski have kind of mellowed out and at this point aren't really villains.
Brad and joey weren't really villians so much as just straight dipshits. I mean brad literally tried to kill carl edwards, joey has pissed off every active cup driver, damn right brad mellowed out after he started paying for tearing up cars when he founded RFK 😂
Denny Hamlin has been the villain most of his career. We were just oblivious to it.
Lolol LMAO you only started hating him when 23XI was announced.
You were on the same bandwagon in 2010 that swore he'd dethrone Johnson cuz "he must be stopped! Johnson is ruining NASCAR!"
@@RooneyMac shut up dummy
It feels like Hamlin wants to be the villain and the beloved veteran at the same time despite them being mutually exclusive.
Denny Hamlin is the only reason I tune into NASCAR anymore
You like watching him choke the season away every year?
Also he’s a huge Choke artist
I'm definitely a fan if his race team he co-owns with Michael Jordan: 23XI Racing
I LOVED Denny calling bowman a hack
I like Hamlin more now than I even did 5 years ago lol really the only driver I loathe in this sport is Logano
I know you didnt ask, but here's my $.02. I can't stand Logano (either) and Keslowski. Idk but those two chuckleheads annoy the hell out of me. They also just have these....👊🏻....punchable faces 😂😂😂.
It's official. Denny Hamlin has taken the lead in the villain's race.
1. Denny Hamlin
2. Joey Logano
3. Kyle Busch
4. Ross Chastain
5. NASCAR officiating
Maybe it’s just me but unlike Kyle Busch or Ty Gibbs who seemed to embrace being disliked, Denny Hamlin feels forced. There’s no natural villain arc with him it’s so unnatural
I’ve got no reason to dislike him or boo him, even his controversial incidents can usually be explained away by “oh it’s just racing”
Bumping someone for the win at Martinsville is perfectly acceptable.
Ryan Newman always ends up on his roof 😂😢
HAMLIN IS THE FUCKING MAN
5:53 Ryan *Newman* you mean.
3:12 I’m pretty sure nascar actually dropped the penalty against Hamlin
A11 in a11ways
just randomly found this channel just a question do you have a brother with a you tube channel called JPR
Hamlin puts drivers in positions that will wreak em or they will have to make a race changing decision where they lose. Period
I hope he wins the championship soon before he retires at least one championship, Please!!
He would have to pull off a Bobby Allison. Bobby Allison won 1 championship. And it was later on his career.
Larson is gonna win it again
Nope! I hope he becomes the winningest driver without a title. He deserves it.
@@AndyFromBeaverton if he does win the championship that is ok because he will have 60 wins and wins is more fun then just one championship
@@zackerykoroskenyi2745no championship = no one remembering your name.
nice P5 music
Who do You think Is The Biggest Villain In NASCAR?
He and bubba are my least favorite drivers for obvious reasons I think since 2017 denny has been somebody I really just dont like but I think 2020 is when I think it hit a fever pitch and exploded he won Daytona celebrated and did donuts while I was more concerned about Ryan Newman, like a lot of us who was there was Talladega and him going below the yellow line to steal that one, plus signing the other most polarized driver with help from mj. Jgr yeah I respect Joe gibbs but some of his drivers past or present there was a time I didn't like them very well.
@@danielblock6876 no lie he should've never celebrated that Daytona with burnouts while being well aware that a older driver just lost the race in one of the most spine chilling wrecks in recent memory
Dale Earnhardt
@@mrs6968 he did not know how bad it was how was he spost to know
@@zackerykoroskenyi2745 The team radio that made him aware of the wreck.
Wow this isnt biased at all lol
Glad you brought up the 2020 Daytona 500 celebration. That's one of the biggest reasons I hate JGR and Denny Hamlin. Everyone thought we might have lost Ryan Newman and for Joe Gibbs to lead the team in celebrating was just so despicable.
Yeah but he didn't realize. He then went to the hospital that night to see Newman. Tell the whole story.
Lololol LMAO did you say that about Mikey in 2001?
@@RooneyMac thanks for saying THIS!!!!
@@JGR4LIFE yeah, difference is Newman alive. Dale was dead.
Also, considering how he was fine and walked out and the recent big news just before that about his recent "separation" I think he faked it for the drama, tryna do some manipulation for sympathy
@@RooneyMac No, but I've never thought about Michael's celebration as a negative thing. At the time, nobody realized how serious Dale's situation was because the crash didn't look that bad. Newman's crash looked terrible and potentially fatal and it happened on the frontstretch right in front of everybody
That 2013 wreck changed him, cte or something neurological.
People like myself are Denny fans cause he just doesn't give a f*** I dnt care about your feel good story lines, and I dnt care if you dnt like what Im saying about the car. Im here to race and Im gonna speak my mind dnt like it to bad🤷🏻♂️ thts why people like him. And if people wanna start fights with him whatever happens happens. He was gonna kill Elliot for turning him at Charlotte. This sport needs guys like him. Dennis the menace all day!😂
I don’t mind Denny but I don’t like him massive Chevy fan here
In today's era, I like to think of Denny as the Starscream to Kyle Busch's Megatron.
And before anyone asks, Chase Elliott is Bumblebee, Kyle Larson is Jazz, Ross Chastain is Ironhide, and Martin Truex Jr. is Optimus Prime.
i have something so say dummy tell mw why is he a villain now dummys
Hamlin’s prime was 2008-2012
I’d argue that 2019 to now is his prime. In terms of his talent.
@@sonny_njr same, I still think he's in his prime
When he wrecked Elliott at Martinsville I had never been more happy. Laughed my ass off.
Why does Eric Estepp base his nascar sponsorships and die casts off of this guy? Hes got 1.10th the subs and popularity as this guy, makes no sense.
Sucks the script has byron as champion this year, denny doesnt have many years left
Unless Denny Hamlin pulls off a Bobby Allison, I don’t he is ever gonna win the championship. Yeah, I get the impression it’s gonna be William Byron winning the championship this year.
Denny deserves to lose
We all know why the trailerpark hates him, its only been since the announcement of 23XI
I can't be criticized, I have a black friend!
Denny's not a villain, he's just a douche. No one likes him for his personality and now people have become aware of how much he will cheat to win. People also hate crybabies who never take the blame.
"Arguably the greatest driver currently racing in NASCAR"
Kyle Larson
Kyle Busch
Matt Crafton
Martin Truex Jr.
Joey Logano
There's 5 that are better right there. All have titles too, so there's that
Kyle Busch is not better right now lol
Denny is the best right now. Championship or not. Matt Crafton is washed up, Kyle Busch is entering that stage. Truex is up there. Logano is struggling and Larson is the 2nd best.
@ButtaNips you say Truex is close to washed up and Larson is 2nd best. Yet both of them beat Hamlin in points last year and are beating him again, even when you disregard the playoffs. Hamlin is constantly bested during the post-season by better drivers. You can be as good as you can be in the regular season, but if you can't get it done at the end, you're not the greatest. Straight up
@@Duval-In-The-Wall 200+ wins across all series and 2 titles would say otherwise
@@BestGuy2103
Key word “right now”
Jimmie Johnson has 7 titles and he’s not better either
whenever and however he chokes out of the playoffs this year we'll all just have to have a drink and toast him for another year without a championship
I was actually storming down the ramp in the concourse at Bristol during this speech. I was mad I paid $500+ and drove 2 and a half hours to watch the most boring bristol race ever and Hamlin wins without an issue. Lmao I would have been right near the flagstand
I mean he's a hypocritical hack, straight dumps rookie chase just trying to get his first ever win, then throws a temper tantrum at a basic bump and run by alex bowman for the win (also i was there, right at the start finish line watching that in person so dont tell me bowman did more than bump him)
Lololol who, yet another nepo-hire?
Ryan blaney has a championship That's all that matters
8 top 5s
@@sonny_njr Championship versus no championship
@@sonny_njr Still has a championship over your favorite driver
@@morganrigsbee4274 I’ll take 3 500s over a Mickey Mouse title any day
@@sonny_njr Daytona is overrated
Nascar is the wwe on 4wheels and the only thing that makes hammy a villain is that unlike kyle biiiiiiish hammy has never owned up to being a heel like kyle biiiiiish always has and just like how biiiiiish recently had a change of attitude and heart via post race interviews etc these last few seasons there is hope that hammy will turn face with the grace of age
Hamlin has always been mid, whenever hes racing for the win, he deliberately shoves the other driver into the wall, and claims it was on accident, but it’s happened over a dozen times. He can;t win on raw talent. Thats why he’ll never win a championship.
Just because some nobody RUclipsr says it doesn't mean it's true. Waste of time video
Honestly I hated Hamlin from when i started watching (2008)
when he did nothing in that year but ok
@@zackerykoroskenyi2745 it was his arrogance that did it not his actions
@@josephharrison5639 in 2008 he was young and nice he is still the same now people are just stupid and i look up what that word means lol
I hated him 2 years earlier.
It’s funny because I’ve never been more of a fan of Hamlin
