The 2024 NASCAR Cup season saw Kyle Larson attempting the iconic Double, with the Indy 500 start alongside the Coke 600. But unfortunately, everything went south for him in the labour weekend as rain ruined both races for him. He couldn’t race at Charllotte because of the massive delay at Indy and this subsequently cost him the regular season championship.
Despite the massive drawbacks, Hendrick Motorsports has decided to let Kyle Larson attempt the Brickyard race once more with McLaren. They do have one condition though, the NASCAR recent takes priority regardless of the situation. Now senior NASCAR journalist Jordan Bianchi has discussed the possibility of a Larson win at Indy.
He is really excited about the HMS drivers Indy 500 start and believes it is going to be a great opportunity to win the race. The extra experience with the race gives him an edge next-season. Bianchi believes the No:5 HMS Chevy driver would also have a shot to win the Coca Cola 600 at Charllotte as well.
I’m excited for him to have that opportunity again next year and I think he’s going to be going to Indy, and I think he’s gonna have a great shot [to win] now that’s he’s got more experience and everything else. I think he’s got a shot to win that race. I really firmly do, and then he’s obviously gonna have a chance to win the 600.
Jordan Bianchi said via “The Teardown” podcast.
