Kyle Larson & Tony Kanaan Unpack Indy 500 Realities with Dale Jr.

Dale Earnhardt Jr. welcomes Kyle Larson and Tony Kanaan to the studio to learn more about Kyle’s return to the Indianapolis 500 as part of the historic Memorial Day double. After a rain delay disrupted the true double attempt in 2024, Kyle is anxious to get back behind the wheel at Indy for another attempt at the incredible feat. Dale asks Kyle and Tony about the process of getting Kyle behind the wheel of an IndyCar and what his first test sessions felt like. They also discuss the comparisons between an IndyCar Dallara and a NextGen Cup car. Kyle and Tony talk about their history together, dating back to winning the 24 Hours of Daytona in 2015, and how that helped streamline their learning process and working relationship at Arrow McLaren. The guys chat about the magnitude of the 500 and the environment at Indianapolis Motor Speedway during the month of May, and how it doesn’t compare to anything else in motorsports. Tony explains how he takes information from engineers and streamlines it for Kyle to better understand behind the wheel. The interview also covers the process of timing a pass at IMS, Kyle’s 2024 pit penalty, plan B for 2025 and what’s next on Kyle’s racing bucket list.
