Hendrick Motorsports’ Kyle Larson is set to make history, as he would be making his IndyCar debut at the 2024 Indy 500. He will drive for Arrow McLaren’s HendrickCars.com sponsored challenger and is expected to be in the fight to become the first ever active NASCAR driver to win the iconic race at the Brickyard.
Kyle Larson has a special relationship with IndyCar and open wheel racing. His father, Mike Larson, was a big IndyCar fan, and though he used to watch NASCAR, the open wheel championship was the one that often intrigued him. The 2021 Cup champion raced open wheel cars majority of his junior career before making a switch to stock car racing.
