[autotag]Kyle Larson[/autotag] is going to run it back in 2025. On Tuesday afternoon, Hendrick Motorsports and Arrow McLaren revealed that Larson will attempt “The Double” for the second time next year. The driver of the No. 5 car will compete in the Indianapolis 500 and Coca-Cola 600 on the same day after the weather ruined his attempt in 2024.
Larson ran well in the 2024 Indianapolis 500 after a rain delay; however, a pit road speeding penalty ruined a potential top-5 run, and he finished in 18th place. The 2021 NASCAR Cup Series champion then flew to Charlotte Motor Speedway, only to never strap into the No. 5 car after weather canceled the rest of the Coca-Cola 600.
The highly anticipated attempt will take place on May 25, 2025. Larson was impressive in his Indianapolis 500 debut, providing optimism that he can compete for the win next year. Larson will have a full year of experience under his belt, which will likely give him more confidence. Hopefully, the weather cooperates, and Larson can complete all 1,100 miles of racing.
