DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. (AP) — Denny Hamlin has won his second Daytona 500 in four years. He took the checkered flag for Joe Gibbs Racing a month after Joe Gibbs' oldest son died following a long battle with a degenerative neurological disease. J.D. Gibbs was 49. Hamlin moved out front after a final restart and had teammate Kyle Busch blocking in the final lap. Joe Gibbs says "what happened here is really unreal."
