Denny Hamlin's suggested changes to NASCAR's All-Star race weekend have been addressed by Mike Forde, the managing director of racing communications.

It’s no secret that Denny Hamlin doesn’t hold back when he’s talking about NASCAR’s short-track package. Last season, he was one of the loudest voices calling for more horsepower in the Next Gen car.

NASCAR's Mike Forde has responded to Denny Hamlin's claims that the proposed All-Star "Run What Ya Brung" feature would have cost the teams roughly $2 million.
