Hamlin Eyes Victory at Iowa Speedway
NASCAR Cup Series leader Denny Hamlin is set to face competition at Iowa's short-track weekend, as he heads into Saturday and Sunday's events. The Iowa Corn 350 Powered by Ethanol will feature 350 laps at the Iowa Speedway, with practice scheduled for 2:05 p.m. on Saturday and qualifying at 3:10 p.m. Sunday's race is set to begin at 3:30 p.m.
Last weekend, Corey Heim secured his second series victory by holding off a late surge from Christopher Bell at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway. The upcoming events in Iowa will be crucial for Hamlin, who will need to maintain his lead amidst the competition.
