Denny Hamlin's Daytona 500 paint scheme revealed
Joe Gibbs Racing unveiled Wednesday Denny Hamlin‘s paint scheme for the 67th running of the Daytona 500 on Sunday, Feb. 16.
Hamlin’s primary sponsor for his 20th start in the Daytona 500 is National Debt Relief. The company will sponsor the No. 11 Toyota for three other races during the 2025 NASCAR Cup Series season: Circuit of The Americas (March 2), the Coca-Cola 600 at Charlotte Motor Speedway (May 25) and Talladega Superspeedway (Oct. 19).

JGR announced the deal with National Debt Relief last week as Hamlin heads into a season without FedEx for the first time. FedEx, Hamlin’s sponsor for 19 years, has completely departed from the team after cutting back its sponsorship every year since 2021.
“I am really looking forward to this partnership with National Debt Relief,” Hamlin said. “Unfortunately, financial hardships are something that so many people deal with at some point in their lives. Our family was no different when I was growing up. The sacrifices my parents made to support my racing career were not easy.

“So many people have their own stories of what caused their financial situation, but fortunately, National Debt Relief offers services to help overcome that and allows people to get back on track financially. We believe strongly in the platform that our sport provides to get that message across and there is no better place than the DAYTONA 500 to kick that off.”
Hamlin will be one of the favorites at Daytona. The 44-year-old is a three-time Daytona 500 winner (2016 ’19, ’20), though he’s finished 17th or worse in his last three starts in the Great American Race.
Adding a fourth would place Hamlin in a tie with Cale Yarborough for the second most wins in Daytona 500 history. Richard Petty is the record-holder with seven victories.
