Denny Hamlin will return to Joe Gibbs Racing

Denny Hamlin signed a multi-year contract with Joe Gibbs Racing, the organization announced Monday.

Hamlin, who dominated the Southern 500 Sunday at Darlington, will return to the No. 11 Toyota for at least 2024 and 2025.

The contract talks took time to hammer out. Hamlin cited some negotiations about the manufacturer deal with 23XI Racing and the organization’s alliance with JGR.

With the announcement of Hamlin returning to JGR, 23XI’s deal with Toyota is also set in stone.
