Denny Hamlin added the Xfinity Fastest Lap award during his race to the NASCAR Cup Series win on Sunday at Dover Motor Speedway, while Brandon Jones earned the award on Saturday at Dover.

Hamlin took the checkered flag in an overtime finish to Sunday's AutoTrader EchoPark Automotive 400 at Dover, holding off teammate Chase Briscoe on the second overtime attempt.

On the final lap of the race, Hamlin set the Xfinity Fastest Lap with a time of 23.088 seconds as he pulled away from Briscoe for his fourth win of the season.

It is Hamlin's fifth Xfinity Fastest Lap of the 2025 NASCAR Cup Series season. He is currently fourth in the NASCAR Cup Series championship standings, and the lone driver in the series with four race wins.

Meanwhile, Brandon Jones earned the Xfinity Fastest Lap during the Xfinity Series' BetRivers 200 at Dover on Saturday. Jones' fastest lap came on lap 101 en route to a third-place finish in the rain-shortened race. Connor Zilisch picked up the victory in Saturday's race.

Jones sits sixth in the NASCAR Xfinity Series standings, with one win to his credit this year. This was his first Xfinity Fastest Lap award of the season, earning him a bonus point in the championship standings.

This weekend, the NASCAR Cup Series and NASCAR Xfinity Series head to Indianapolis Motor Speedway as part of Brickyard 400 weekend. The NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series returns to action as well, competing on Friday night at nearby Lucas Oil Indianapolis Raceway Park.
