The 2021 NASCAR champ quickly passed the Indy 500 rookie orientation test, turning a fast lap of 217.898 mph before leaving for this weekend's race at Las Vegas.Kyle Larson, Rick Hendrick of Hendrick Motorsports, and Gavin Ward of Arrow McLaren discuss Kyle Larson's 'double duty' attempt for 2024Thursday with a neatly timed stopover in Indianapolis so he could pass his Indianapolis 500 rookie test, posting a fast lap of 217.
“Like I said in you'd be really tight in one, like you're off the gas. You'd be tight in two and then you would have better balance in three and four,” Larson said. “but the balance of all four corners felt way more similar than a stock car. So that's nice, I guess.”At one point, Larson accidentally hit a button on the steering wheel that he said prevented the car from moving. The plan is to move it to avoid a repeat before the race or, even worse, on race day.
In fact, the toughest part for Larson was slowing enough to pass each of three phases. Rookies must turn 10 laps between 205 and 210 mph, 15 laps between 210 and 215 and 15 more faster than 215.“When you're running more throttle, it's easier to kind of hit your target,” Larson said. “So the slower the speed, it was just kind of hard for me to figure out my timing. Like I would roll out and want to run wide open through one and two.
