#11-Denny Hamlin, who was fastest in Friday’s lone practice with a speed of 134.820mph, went out last in qualifying for the Sylvania 300 Sprint Cup Series race at New Hampshire Motor Speedway and only ran a fast lap of 131.633mph and will start 32nd. #24-Gordon had just gone out before him and ran a pole-winning lap of 134-911mph. From a Toyota Racing Post-Qualifying Notes & Quotes PR:
Q) What happened during your qualifying lap?
Hamlin: ‘I knew something was wrong. It looked like we just ‘ we ended up having race pressures and we didn ‘t put our qualifying pressures in, so that was a tough one. I knew something was really, really wrong because we were just ‘ the car was bobbing down real bad ‘ but simple mistake. We ‘ll rebound from it. We ‘re quick enough. We ‘ll get them, but that’s frustrating. Holy cow ‘ I knew something had to be wrong. If there was nothing wrong than I would really be shaking my head. At least we identified what the problem was.’(Toyota Racing)(9-21-2012)
