Hamlin Surges to Top as Reddick Stumbles

Denny Hamlin just seized the top spot in the power rankings after a jaw-dropping win at Michigan, leading most of the race and pulling away for his first No. 1 of the season — a seismic shift as the playoffs heat up. Tyler Reddick, who’d held the top spot, crashed out at Michigan for his first DNF, though he still leads the points. Hamlin’s Pocono dominance looms — he’s won there seven times — making the next race a must-watch. Chase Briscoe, the defending Pocono champ, and Kyle Larson, on a hot streak, are also firing on all cylinders. With every race counting, the championship race is tightening up fast.
