Kyle Larson wins third Chili Bowl Nationals title


Kyle Larson led all 40 laps from the pole to win his third Chili Bowl Nationals midget car event Saturday night in Tulsa, Oklahoma.

“I love being back here,” Larson said on the FloRacing broadcast.

Larson won despite running over the front tire of a car that slid in front of him and hitting the wall several times in the final laps.

Larson ties Christopher Bell in Chili Bowl titles. Larson’s other Chili Bowl wins came in 2020 and ’21.

Bell finished 10th in Saturday night’s race.
