The excitement 2021 NASCAR Cup Series champion Kyle Larson has for competing in next year’s Indianapolis 500 presented by Gainbridge will be supported by Arrow McLaren Racing’s commitment to the program. Every different type of race car I drive takes a different driving style and different driving craft. I’ve always said that I do not want to compete in the Indy 500 just to say I’ve competed in the Indy 500. Surprisingly, Larson said it wasn’t that difficult to convince his NASCAR boss, Rick Hendrick, to venture into this endeavor. Hendrick, whose stock car team has won 10 races at IMS, said he is happy to support Larson’s dream of competing in the “500.”. “The Indy 500 is such a prestigious event, and I never thought I’d be there,” he said.
