“NASCAR Comeback Story Can’t Save Him This Season” – Fans Mad at Kyle Larson After His Actions at LA Coliseum

Kyle Larson, the 2021 Cup Series champion, was so good in the past season that there were times when he was out and away from the traffic in many races. However, now that his title defense begins, the Hendrick driver found himself part of the traffic in the midfield, frustrating him to the point of wrecking a fellow driver.

During the inaugural Busch Clash at the Coliseum, an angry Larson shoved Justin Haley into the wall, effectively ending his race.

Naturally, fans weren’t very fond of the champ’s antics despite the fact that this wreck wasn’t entirely his fault.

Fellow NASCAR driver cites Kyle Larson as an example

It’s well documented just how active of a racecar driver Kyle Larson is. While most drivers take the off-season days as a means to recharge their batteries and come back stronger, Larson simply swaps racecars.

The Hendrick driver, more or less, is always in a racecar, racing for the wins round the year.

Of course, this has made him a better driver, something clearly visible in the past season when he wrapped up an astonishing 10 wins. And it’s this work-ethic and all-out devotion to his passion that has made the 29-year-old a leader and an example to many other NASCAR drivers, according to Tyler Reddick.

In a recent interview, Reddick said, “When I think of somebody that spends as much time in a race car as possible, trying to learn and trying to get better, (Larson) has got everybody beat by a lot.”
