Denny Hamlin has made a U-turn on his stance about the Cup Series race at Bristol Motor Speedway that fans disliked.

The Cup and Xfinity Series will be on the track for practice, qualifying and a 300-lap race Saturday, April 12 at Bristol Motor Speedway. Nearly eight hours of activity on the 0.533-mile oval in Bristol, Tennessee, will start with Xfinity practice and qualifying, followed by Cup practice and qualifying for Sunday’s 500-lap race.

Kyle Larson fended off several challenges for the lead by Denny Hamlin as they ran in the top two positions for 251 of 500 laps at Bristol Motor Speedway
