Impact Hamlin would have to overcome a range of challenges, including a pit road speeding penalty to rally and crack the Top 5 at Charlotte. The Joe Gibbs Racing star would make some great moves late to get into the lead on lap 89. Hamlin would lead the next 13 laps until yielding the point to Kyle Larson after the final caution. He would eventually slip to fifth-place for his 17th Top 5 of the season. Hamlin will continue his pursuit of this season's championship next week at Texas.
