Denny Hamlin was booed in celebration again. The Joe Gibbs Racing superstar heard another heaping of disproval and contempt when he climbed from his No. 11 Toyota at Bristol Motor Speedway on Sunday. Victor and villain. Hamlin stopped short of egging on the hostiles this time, though.

Hamlin seemed to reignite those memories last May when he publicly and loudly called for Elliott to be suspended after Elliott intentionally wrecked him in the Coca-Cola 600. NASCAR did, and fans blamed Hamlin even though the punishment was in line with similar altercations. “When you’ve got all the things that I’ve got in that box in the negativity checked, you are just going to have to live that life.”

The best bad guys win, and Hamlin did that Sunday for the 21st time in the last six seasons — more than anyone else in the series over that span.
