Get to know NASCAR and Indy 500 driver Kyle Larson and his No. 17 Arrow McLaren race car
Kyle Larson is taking a second crack at the "Double" — competing in the Indianapolis 500 and NASCAR Cup's Coca-Cola 600 in Charlotte, North Carolina, on the same day, May 25. The 32-year-old raced on the 2.5-mile Indianapolis Motor Speedway oval in 2024, finishing 18th. However, a 4-hour rain delay in Indianapolis made him late for Charlotte. The Cup race had already begun and, when he got there, rain had stopped that race, so he never got in the car. After an eventful week of practice, Larson is set to start 19th for the 2025 Indy 500 with a qualifying speed of 231.326 mph over four laps.
