Denny Hamlin and Joe Gibbs Racing (JGR) are enhancing their branding efforts following the departure of long-term partner FedEx. The most significant development is the partnership with Progressive, which will back Hamlin for 18 races this year.
In addition, JGR has announced a multi-year sponsorship with Bob’s Discount Furniture, based in Newington, Connecticut. The company, which operates roughly 150 stores throughout the Northeast, Mid-Atlantic, Midwest, and West Coast, will debut its branding on Hamlin’s No. 11 Toyota at the Iowa Speedway on August 3. The official paint scheme is set to be unveiled on July 17 during the grand opening of a new store in Winston-Salem, North Carolina.
Hamlin is currently having a robust season, boasting three wins across the first part of the year, tied for the most among all drivers. His victories came at Martinsville, Darlington, and Michigan, each with different sponsorships. So far, he has raced with four primary sponsors this season: Progressive, National Debt Relief, SportClips, and Yahoo.
Despite missing the recent Cup race in Mexico City due to the birth of his son—the first Cup event he has missed in over a decade—Hamlin retains a strong position, currently sitting fifth in the regular season standings.
Key Stats:
- Current Standings: 5th in regular season standings
- 2025 Wins: 3 (Martinsville, Darlington, Michigan)
- Primary Sponsors: Progressive, National Debt Relief, SportClips, Yahoo
This season, Hamlin’s ability to adapt with new sponsors while maintaining a competitive edge underscores his resilience and commitment to success in the NASCAR Cup Series.
