NASCAR driver confidential: Will Denny Hamlin win a title? Who is most underrated?

The NASCAR Cup Series playoff drivers have plenty of opinions. And a variety.

But there is one thing many agree on: Denny Hamlin will win a Cup championship — one day.

Maybe they feel like the odds are in his favor. Maybe they just feel someone who has won 54 Cup races in his career has shown the consistent strength that will finish off a season hoisting a trophy.

As they dropped by the FOX Sports station during playoff media day, we asked the 16 playoff drivers six questions in a written survey that were then placed in a box so we wouldn’t know their answers. We tried to keep the questions a little open to interpretation and not give instructions, so there were a variety of answers — some drivers chose to give one answer (which was implied in the question) but others put down several answers.
