Denny Hamlin missed the race in Mexico City, but it didn't seem to impact him as the NASCAR Cup Series rolled into Pocono. With a record seven wins at the 2.5-mile track, it was obvious that the No. 11 Toyota would be fast again, and in qualifying, no one could match his pace. He went to the top of the charts in his fifth pole position at Pocono but his first of the 2025 season.
"Obviously, because I was a little more rested than the field right there, I was able to get a little more speed," joked Hamlin.
