Daytona 500 winner gets trophy with typo

Wrong year engraved on Denny Hamlin's trophy

ORLANDO, Fla. – NASCAR driver Denny Hamlin falls victim to another typo. 

The 2016 Daytona 500 winner shared a picture of his trophy online, showing a glaring problem. Instead of the correct year, 2015 was printed on the trophy. 

 

It's the second time in a week Hamlin has had to deal with a misprint. On Monday, a newspaper printed a headline after his victory at Watkins Glen that said Hamilton won the race, instead of Hamlin.
