Kyle Larson will steam with a head of 1.5 miles and hopefully a better weather forecast in the Coca-Cola 600 on Charlotte Motor Speedway.
The 2021 Cup series champion missed last year’s race after he arrived late because the 108th Indianapolis 500 was delayed by four hours, and Larson’s hope of becoming the fifth driver is negative in the Indy 500 and Coke 600 on the same day.
The Hendrick Motorsports star will try again this season and the no. 17 Dallara Chevrolet for Arrow McLaren drove before going to Charlotte to launch his number 5 Chevrolet in the cup series.
Larson led personal best for wins (three), top five (eight) and rounds (817) through the first 12 races of a season. With his victory on May 4 on Kansas Speedway, Larson exceeded 10,000 rounds in his cup career and led 24.5 percent of the rounds in the 2025 season. The victory on the 1.5 mile oval was his 32nd in the cup.
Hendrick drivers have led 1.387 rounds (41.6 percent) this season, the team’s most since 2010.
Cup drivers will take part in the longest race of the season on Charlotte Motor Speedway on Sunday night.
