Denny Hamlin should have known better.
One of NASCAR’s highest profile drivers — a 41-year-old three-time Daytona 500 winner and 23XI Racing team co-owner — should have known not to tweet a racist, anti-Asian meme.
Even if it was his attempt to poke fun at his friend and competitor, Kyle Larson, who ignited a wreck Sunday at Talladega Superspeedway that collected the two 23XI cars, a racist joke emphasizing harmful anti-Asian-American stereotypes is unacceptable.
