DENNY HAMLIN, No. 11 FedEx Ground Toyota Camry, Joe Gibbs Racing - Can you talk about what it's like coming home seeking a fourth Cup win at Richmond International Raceway? “Well, it's always a track that we look to get on track relatively speaking. It seems like this racetrack for whatever reason, it's been good to me. Obviously, very similar to Martinsville in the sense of no matter how good or bad our cars are at, at the certain time, we always can be competitive at a race track like this. We hope that's the same case this weekend. We look to try to get our first win of the season here.”
