Kyle Larson over the years has established himself as one of the bets racing talents in the last few years with his performance with Chevy giants Hendrick Motorsports. He joined HMS in 2021, after one of the worst phases of his career and since then hasn’t looked back. The No:5 racer won the Cup title on his debut and has secured 23 race wins the last four seasons.

The veteran is enjoying his time with HMS more than anyone, as he is having opportunity to prove his worth and fight for wins every other week. But at the same time, Kyle Larson is in the second phase of his career, with final chapter of NASCAR racing close by. Recently, while talking about how his life has changed over the years

I’m getting older, too. I’m at a much different place in my life than I was at 22 or 23. I’ve got three kids now, and that keeps things going crazy. I love being at Hendrick Motorsports; they’re the best. I hope to be there until I’m done.

Kyle Larson told RACER.

In the same interview earlier, Kyle Larson admitted how his life is going faster than expected with Hendrick Motorsports. He feels like he has been with HMS for a longtime, despite its being just four season and the success he has had over the years has been the primary reason behind this feeling.

I think life just goes by faster as you get older. I feel like I was at Ganassi (Racing) for a super long time, and I’ve already been at Hendrick for close to the same length. But we’re having more success now, so that helps things go by quicker.

Kyle Larson shares his feelings about having chances to win every race

One of the major change Kyle Larson has had since moving HMS is the opportunities he gets to win races. In his time at Chipp Ganassi Racing they only focussed on certain races, now he has shot a win every other week. This makes all the race starts much more exciting for him.

Back when I first started, there were only a handful of races throughout the year where I felt like I could maybe win (that) weekend, and you got really excited about that….But now, being at Hendrick, you get excited every week because you feel like you have a shot to lead lots of laps and execute and have it turn out to win.

The comments from Kyle Larson shows how much he is cherishing his time with Hendrick Motorsports and having the opportunity fight for win every race week. It will be interesting to see if he can do the same till the end of his NASCAR career.
