Kyle Larson, NASCAR Star, to Participate in Indy 500 Rookie Orientation in October

The 2021 NASCAR Cup champion, Kyle Larson, is set to make his IndyCar Series debut in the 108th running of the Indy 500 next May. He will be driving a Hendrick Motorsports-owned fourth McLaren-Chevrolet entry. Larson has already driven the car virtually on GM’s simulator and had his seat fitting at McLaren’s workshops at Indianapolis. His clearance as a rookie has been arranged for a test in October. This will be veteran NASCAR team boss Rick Hendrick’s first experience of IndyCar racing.
