The Coca Cola 600, a NASCAR Cup Series race, takes place at Charlotte Motor Speedway in Charlotte, North Carolina, on Sunday, May 26, 2024 (5/26/24).
A pack of cars comes to the green flag to start a NASCAR Cup Series auto race at Charlotte Motor Speedway, Monday, May 29, 2023, in Concord, N.C. The Coca Cola 600, a NASCAR Cup Series race, takes place at Charlotte Motor Speedway in Charlotte, North Carolina, on Sunday, May 26, 2024 .who the best driver in the world is right now and the answer is probably going to be Formula 1′s three-time reigning champion.
Larson qualified fifth on Sunday for his first Indianapolis 500, then flew to North Carolina, where he finished fourth at North Wilkesboro Speedway in NASCAR’s $1 million All-Star race that night. This Sunday, he will be the fifth driver in history to attempt “The Double” by running both the Indy 500 and the Coca-Cola 600 in Charlotte on the same day.
Larson won what has become one of NASCAR’s crown jewels in 2021, his championship season. His two-year Indy 500 deal is a joint effort between Arrow McLaren Racing and Hendrick Motorsports, his NASCAR team, with Jeff Gordon among the Hendrick executives who watched him qualify at Indianapolis Motor Speedway on Sunday.
Larson had the same feelings a year ago following NASCAR’s street-course race in Chicago, which was won in the rain by Shane van Gisbergen in the New Zealander’s debut. After van Gisbergen won NASCAR’s first-ever street race, Chase Elliott said the Kiwi “made me look bad,” and Larson wondered whether van Gisbergen “thinks we all suck.”
“It’s Kyle Larson. I don’t think it would hurt,” Palou said. “If Kyle Larson wins, it’s Kyle Larson, so whatever. He wins everything. So I don’t think it would make us look as idiots. It’s not that I’m like, ‘Oh yeah, if he wins, that’s cool.’ I don’t want him to win. But I think he will be there, for sure.”
“Not in an F1 car!” Larson replied. “I can’t beat him in an F1 car. And I bet he can beat me in an Indy car, just based off his street and road course experience.”“I mean, I hope I can beat him in a sprint car,” Larson said.
