00:00 >> Jamie little.
00:20 >> And Denny Hamlin.
00:21 We're just in a smoke show down here.
00:22 That was impressive.
00:23 Denny, you were so confident in this car.
00:26 You got the pole earlier.
00:27 But then you slipped back a little bit.
00:28 How did you fight your way back and take the lead with ten laps to go and hold off your
00:32 teammate and pass him?
00:33 >> A lot of it was what happened in front of me.
00:36 With the 54 and 22.
00:38 You never know what was going to happen there.
00:39 I got a really good run off of turn two and just got position and was able to hang on
00:45 from there.
00:46 So it's so chaotic, the restart.
00:48 Everyone is bumping and banging.
00:49 It feels great to win here in L.A.
00:52 >> Denny, I know you had shoulder surgery in the off season.
00:55 There's question marks coming in.
00:56 Then you get the big win to kick the season off.
00:59 What does this mean to you and the team and just starting the year this way?
01:03 >> It's just a great momentum boost.
01:04 It doesn't do much more than that.
01:06 But I clean off all the trophies every January 1st in the entryway of the house.
01:12 Now we get to add one pretty quick.
01:13 So really happy about that.
01:15 >> Congratulations.
01:16 Denny Hamlin is your clash winner.
01:19 He has something to say, I think.
01:21 >> You know I beat your favorite driver again, right?
