NASCAR CUP SERIES star Kyle Larson says he is unsure whether he will compete in the Indianapolis 500 again after next month’s race.
Larson is back on the Indianapolis Motor Speedway this week with Arrow McLaren as preparations ramp up for the 109th running of the Indianapolis 500 presented by Gainbridge.
Larson ended Wednesday’s action just outside the top ten in 11th place.
When asked about what the future might hold, Larson said:
I don’t know. I haven’t really had a sit-down discussion with anybody about that. So I don’t know. I can’t really fully answer that.
In my head, yeah, I’m going into this thinking it’s at least for the time being, in the near future, the final Indy 500. But I am still young, and I mentioned on Dale Jr.’s Download thing that maybe someday when I’m not full-time Cup and I can really devote all my mind to Indy, I’d like to do it again.
But we’ll see. If I happen to win the Indy 500, I’d probably just ride off into the sunset, too.
I don’t know, it’s such a cool event. I think once you run it enough, I think, and you don’t, you probably have a lot of FOMO and want to come back. It’s hard to fully answer that right now.
Larson will be back on track with the rest of the field today.
