Denny Hamlin gave Joe Gibbs Racing its first victory in NASCAR's Sprint All-Star race by using clean air to hold off Kevin Harvick at Charlotte Motor Speedway. ''It's been a long time coming,'' said Joe Gibbs, who got his first All-Star victory in 24 races. ''That was prime-time right there.'' Hamlin was aided on the final pit stop when Brad Keselowski, who raced Hamlin off pit road but exited second, was flagged for speeding. Keselowski dropped to the rear of the field - taking him out of contention - and putting Kurt Busch, Harvick and Kasey Kahne right behind Hamlin.
