CHARLOTTE — Kyle Larson will attempt to race the Indianapolis 500 next year with McLaren Racing in a joint effort with NASCAR team owner Rick Hendrick. The team expanded this year to add 2016 Indy 500 winner Alexander Rossi to its roster and hired 2013 Indy winner Tony Kanaan for the 500. Larson is entering his third season driving for Hendrick Motorsports and had been actively pursuing an Indy 500 ride. “It’s going to be very, very special to field a Chevrolet in the Indy 500 as a car owner. “Adding Kyle Larson with a HendrickCars.com partnership to the Indy 500 lineup in 2024 is exciting for our Arrow McLaren team as well as for race fans,” McLaren head Zak Brown said.
