Denny Hamlin, Lil Wayne hang out night before Homestead finale
Denny Hamlin may be driving in the biggest race of his life on Sunday, but he still took the time to celebrate his birthday with rapper Lil Wayne.
Hamlin, who is one of the four remaining Chase drivers, turns 34 on Tuesday, and had a low-key birthday celebration with family and friends on Saturday night.
Hamlin tweeted out a picture of himself and the rapper, saying “Thanks for @LilTunechi for coming down and wishing us luck for tomorrow!! Bday dinner complete time for some sleep!”
