In the Xfinity Series, Justin Allgaier finally got the monkey off his back and won his first championship. But it wasn’t easy thanks to a crash in practice, a restart penalty, and a speeding penalty.

In the Cup Series, it was Joey Logano collecting his third championship. When it comes to the current Playoff format, the 22 team has written the book on how to succeed. The only car that could hang with Logano was his teammate Ryan Blaney, who ran out of laps to try and pass Logano.

Team Penske has won the last 3 championships and it has left HMS, JGR, and others wondering what they have to do to find speed at Phoenix.

Denny Hamlin dives deep into the controversy surrounding Martinsville with co-host Jared Allen. After 27 minutes of debating, NASCAR made the decision to remove Christopher Bell from the Championship 4, replacing him with William Byron. Denny agrees they ultimately made the right call.

But the drama didn't stop there—talk of race manipulation stirred up due to manufacturer alliances and the Playoff format. Denny breaks down the dynamics between JGR, 23XI, and the Chevy teams, exploring how alliances impact on-track decisions and contribute to tension in the Playoff structure. He also explains why banning point discussions over in-car audio won’t solve the issue, and shares his thoughts on how the current Playoff format hinders the rise of true superstars in the sport.

As for his own Playoff hopes, Denny reflects on coming up short this season but remains confident about future championship opportunities. Meanwhile, Ryan Blaney secured a dramatic walk-off win at Martinsville, earning his spot in the Championship 4 for the second year in a row.

Amidst all this, Goodyear’s new tires made their debut, and Denny gives his thumbs up on the performance improvements. To wrap things up, the guys preview their Championship 4 favorites and recap the intense weekend in the Truck and Xfinity Series races from Martinsville.

Reddick put on a show at the end, coming from the back to avoid elimination.

The round of eight is a star-studded cast and Denny believes that’s what fans want to see. Jared puts Denny on the spot asking him to name the four drivers who will advance.

Track limits was a big topic going into Sunday’s race and apparently drivers weren’t 100% of the rule. And did NASCAR give William Byron a pass right after punishing Bubba Wallace?

On Saturday, Parker Kligerman thought he had a walk-off win but a last second caution ruined his plans. The call was the right call, but how they got to the call is something that needs to be looked at.

Denny Hamlin and co-host Jared Allen are back after an eventful race at Talladega. To decide the order of topics for the show, they brought out a wheel to spin and let it decide.

The first topic of the day is the lawsuit 23XI and Front Row Motorsports filed against NASCAR (5:20). Denny explains why 23XI couldn’t sign the charter agreement and the importance of why they are suing NASCAR.

They also discuss the 11-team's decision to take two tires while others took fuel only (19:00), and whether Ricky Stenhouse Jr. should’ve been ruled part of the crash due to damage (25:00). Plus, why were the rules on Brad Keselowski and Chris Buescher not enforced?

Next, they tackle teams being allowed to work on cars under a red flag, managing of DVP and cars being towed back had many people frustrated (32:25).

Denny also breaks down the massive 25-car wreck (42:50), how Alex Bowman ruined Ryan Blaney's day (51:10), and Daniel Suarez’s self-inflicted mistake (55:05).

Finally, Denny and Jared look ahead to the final race of the round of 12 at the Charlotte Roval and the expectations are chaos.
