I’m an old Sprint car mechanic and everyone knows Larson is a freak of nature that only comes along once in a lifetime! He reminds me of a young Mario Andretti!
Well, let's hope he doesn't get snake bit like Mario did. However, I think Larson is shaping his own mold, as it were. I wonder if Indycar will try to lure him away from Nascar. Should be fun to watch.
I remember watching a very young Kyle Larson race in Outlaw Karts in California back in 99 and 00's the Young Man can drive even back then he showed considerable talent, Amazing what success this young man has achieved once he got the right equipment and personnel behind him he has become a force to be reckoned with.
I don't understand anybody that doesn't like Kyle Larson. We are witnessing one of the greatest driving talents of all time and we all will be lucky to have seen him race. How many people can you name that can race in NASCAR, Sprint Cars/Midgets, and now and Indycar and be fast immediately?
@@doubl33Ace People say this all the time but when road racers come to oval series they also suck so idk 🤷🏻. Several F1 champs have tried NASCAR and they all did really bad. Best was Juan Pablo and he could only win at non ovals.
@@trumpet43samurai Its a different discipline, crossovers are pretty difficult in this day and age. Yes, JPM didn't win on any ovals, but he did podium on some of the tougher tracks, like Dover, Richmond, Martinsville, and finished second his first year at the brickyard. JPM only had 7 stockcar starts before running full time in Cup, and he was still pretty competitive and even won at Sonoma his first year. I really can't see any NASCAR driver pulling that off, without years of running jr formula cars full time.
Larson is a Unique talent whichever way he goes, kind of old school like Foyt, Gurney, and Mario Andretti, I'm 72 and been a racing fan since the late 50s at the Grove in Cottage Grove Oregon. There's a lot of excellent divers out there but every once in a while along comes a driver that seems to set the standard noticeably higher. Like him or not the MAN can flat out drive a race car at a level most racers can only Fantasize about...😎
He is gifted beyond measure. Have to say I've never seen such talent! From the dirt tracks to the Indy track and everything in between Larson is a winner! Yung Money go get that pole! Then the win, we know you can!
@@ViperZero523 Def not, and he was in an Indy car, not an F1. I prefer nascar style contact racing all the way, was just making a comment about the weight and grip differences he experienced in one day.
Kyle Larson is an incredible talent, but in auto racing, it's not about where you start, it's about where you finish. I will cheer him on regardless, but this is one tough race.
I knew he would be good but he is even better than I could ever imagine. He is not the average Nascar driver coming to Indy, he is a force to be reckoned with by the experienced drivers that have thousands of laps under their belts. With a little luck on his side along with the skill he has shown the new kid in town has a chance of an historic win. You have to agree that would be awesome. I can only imagine what the seasoned drivers must be thinking right about now.
different cars gears and engines are tuned differently to work better at certain rpms its what works best for each car 5th gear doesent necessarily mean faster cuz in 5th you might get higher rpms where as in 6th you might or might not be more efficient but yeah its all very technical and for lot smarter people than us to know
Does he have 7 or more Cup championships? Does he have 11 or more World of Outlaw championships? Does he have a single Indycar championship? No, he is NOT the GOAT. Not yet anyway. Larson is my all time favorite driver, but to make a lie from being emotionally charged, I would never do. Is he the best I've ever seen? Yes. But still not the GOAT. Just stop it.
Has less to do with the wall and more to do with the stagger in the wheels...they are canted in to take the corners at speed, that same angle naturally pushes the car to the left on the straights...
(R) means Rookie. This is his first Indy 500, so even though he's a champion of NASCAR Cup Series he's still a rookie at the Indy 500. In general, though, most rookies don't put the car in Row 2 on the grid.
Let this sink in. An F-16 fighter jet takes off at 140-150 mph and weighs over 20,000 pounds. These guys are reaching 240 mph in a car that weighs 1,700 pounds.
Don't like Larson with the reason he got suspended back on 2020. But do respect him as a Driver with all the different kinds of cars he has raced and proved he is one of the greats.
@@RailenThePlaneNerd maybe Diffey is your style. Dominating the commentary, talking over partner broadcasters in the booth. I listen to Indy Car Racing Network for my Indy live coverage. It’s professional. Several commentators taking turns as they comment on the action. Unlike Diffey, who yells Will Powaaaaaaaaaaa and other hyena languages. Lots of people like him, nbc likes him. I question if the listeners have heard anything else. IRN is my choice. Diffey is the worst, but I’ll say he’s gotten better this year. But I turn the audio off if I watch anything on RUclips from NBC or Indy racing with him on it.
Hopefully less people hate Larson than they did before.... also if yall havent tried Sim racing b4 youd probably have a hard time not saying the N word in the R fashion as well. what a shitshow that is.
Big daddy Larson. Dig baby dig digdigdigdigidigdigdig go hard bring it home first or crash in horrendous fashion doing something crazy going for it. Yeaaaaaa

It's an oval race. He is talented, but I don't think he will beat the like of Palou over a full season.
cuz he's a racist prick?
@@doubl33Ace hes won the daytona 24hr before. dont think turning right would slow him down much. as they say on dirt "turn right to go left".

Fair enough.
Hes Max VerfriedChicken
He is such a breath of fresh air to Motorsports!
Agreed. Not a hype show.
Wow! That's why he is my favorite driver! This guy can drive absolutely anything with the best of them!
Larson for the win!!
Way to go KL! Love to see drivers do so well in multiple disciplines!
Witnessing GREATNESS with Kyle Larson 🫡🔥
Kyle Larson is a beast for what he did today and what could happen come next weekend. 5th place here to drive his 5 car at Nascar
This dude is just insane he drive enything and win in it
He wouldn’t be able to do that in f1
Got the money to prove it??

This is great to see. An incredible driver (of anything with 4 wheels) and humble… at the same time. Love this guy.
A guy who's fast in different machinery is a wheelman forsure. He's adapted quickly to indycar with Kanaan and Gordon watching over
WHATEVER "IT" IS, IT OOZES OUT OF THIS GUY! ONE OF THE MOST TALENTED DRIVERS EVER!
GO KYLE!
Just incredible!!! I have to agree with so many comparisons. This type of talent is so very rare. What a wheel man.
Why did I just get chills
His number 5 Camaro is going to feel like a dump truck going 50mph tonight 😂
120 mph but potato potato
@@LETSTALKENTERTAINMENT I don't think he knows what any of that is, because it seems like he's a F1 supremacist

Go Kyle Larson #17
GOOSEBUMPS!!! Gooooo Kyle 🙏🏻🇺🇸
It's Lightning Larson time! Let's go!!!!
Young money does it again 🏁❤🏁
Larson is an incredible talent and a nice guy. Only place he seems to have trouble is Daytona and Talladega.
Larson a legend!
Go get em Kyle!
Kyle Larson is awesome
Think too how much exposure Rick's dealership is getting by sponsoring an Indy car and being at the top of the board..you love to see it
Man, that helmet is beautiful!!

Kyle is the new Smoke!
The Rolex 24, winner coke 600 winner, southern 500 winner and a 2x knoxville nationals winner he is an absolute monster
I wish Jeff Gordon woulda done this back in the day
He is a natural can't teach what he does in any race car he sits in definitely will be a goat
12 car POWER for the win
🔥🔥🔥
AJ Foyt reborn
AJ even in his prime couldn’t carry Kyle’s jock strap .
@@chrisburnsed6349 you completely missed the point AJ Foyt was the innovator of winning in any car he raced
@@Larry-n4n I got your point , I was making a different one.
This is amazing
Word !
KL could just win this, with the right strategy and a little luck. What a cool helmet BTW!

imagine larson and verstappen doing le mahns irl together
Why they sometimes use 5th and sometimes 6th gear? And I dont see much differenece between them because they dont go faster when in 6th
different cars gears and engines are tuned differently to work better at certain rpms its what works best for each car 5th gear doesent necessarily mean faster cuz in 5th you might get higher rpms where as in 6th you might or might not be more efficient but yeah its all very technical and for lot smarter people than us to know
👍he is an national treasure,like Michael Jordan is
All right Motor Mouse fast fast fast pure talent 🐭🏁
Rooting for him to win it next year
#GOAT

@@du24pont70not a fan of him also , if he race more he will be a goat.
Why does he come down the track on the straights? Is there an aero advantage or is he taking the slope to gain a few .001s?
The wall creates drag slowing him down.
Has less to do with the wall and more to do with the stagger in the wheels...they are canted in to take the corners at speed, that same angle naturally pushes the car to the left on the straights...
goddamn these cars _move_
Woooo its Tony Stewart Jr. 😅
He is an amazing driver
McLaren did it with Alonso and now is doing with Kyle Larson again.
What does (R) mean next to his name and a couple of the others?
(R) means Rookie. This is his first Indy 500, so even though he's a champion of NASCAR Cup Series he's still a rookie at the Indy 500.
In general, though, most rookies don't put the car in Row 2 on the grid.
Let this sink in. An F-16 fighter jet takes off at 140-150 mph and weighs over 20,000 pounds. These guys are reaching 240 mph in a car that weighs 1,700 pounds.
Seeing that (R) beside his name gets me every time. Yes, I know he is a rookie in this series. But it looks..... out of place. Lol
👍🏻👍🏻
Don't like Larson with the reason he got suspended back on 2020. But do respect him as a Driver with all the different kinds of cars he has raced and proved he is one of the greats.
The only way
Modern day foyt!
This is a racing savant
Might Kyle decide to join indycar 😂
Something tells me he's more interested in the 500 than Indycar itself, but you never know!!
Probably if he wins next Sunday
👍👍🇨🇦✌️🇨🇦✌️🇨🇦👍✌️
Mission chips - ole
Local boy does good !! I 👍
Hope you shut Pato’s mouth for him!
Why is this guy not in Indycar full time?
Because he is in NASCAR full time. Sprintcars and midgets part time. Only so many hours in the day
I will become a Kyle Larson fan if he makes the step up and eliminates the dead wood in Indycar 2024.
What? He aint retiring from cup till he is in his 40s @@Spontaneous0rder

Like it
career Indy drivers getting smoked by Larson

To Bubba
Because it was in his contract?
He's the most talented driver on the planet. That's why he's there

Liked Jimmay at one time be he's kind of become a wanker.
Got nothing better to do with your thoughts?
Pretty sure this is Kyle Larson...
