After much speculation and delay, the three-time Daytona 500 winner has finally agreed to a contract extension with Joe Gibbs Racing (JGR). He's also a three-time winner of the Southern 500 at Darlington, as well as the 2022 Coke 600 winner at Charlotte.
It appeared that negotiations were being complicated by 23XI Racing, a team co-owned by Hamlin and one that currently has a technical alliance with JGR. Hamlin spoke on that last month at Watkins Glen. Hamlin confirmed on his podcast this week that the relationship between 23XI and JGR will remain unchanged.
