For weeks, Kyle Larson's attempt to run the Memorial Day double at Charlotte and Indianapolis was the top story in all of motorsports. Frantic back-and-forth travel kept Larson in an IndyCar and his NASCAR Cup Series car at North Wilkesboro, Charlotte and Indy throughout the weeks leading up to the Indianapolis 500.
But when Mother Nature delayed the start of the Indy 500, Larson and team owner Rick Hendrick opted to keep him at the Brickyard, knowing he'd miss the start of the Coca-Cola 600 at Charlotte. Justin Allgaier filled in as Larson's relief driver and wound up running every lap before rain shortened the 600 just past halfway.
Will Larson get a waiver from NASCAR to remain eligible for the championship? Some folks are asking if he should even be considered for a waiver because he chose to remain at Indy when it was apparent he couldn't race in both events without missing at least some of the NASCAR race.
In this clip from the O'Reilly Auto Parts Pit reporters, our panel discusses Larson's double attempt, whether he will or should get the waiver and what it means going forward for drivers who miss a Cup Series race. #NASCAR #Indy500 #KyleLarson
