• Only four drivers have attempted the 1,100-mile double, with Tony Stewart being the sole competitor to finish both races in 2001.
• Larson’s first attempt in 2024 was disrupted by weather delays, but he feels physically and mentally ready for this year’s challenge at age 32.
• He has focused on adapting to the tighter IndyCar cockpit, complex steering controls, and unique visibility compared to NASCAR Cup cars.
• Larson’s primary goal is to complete every lap, with an aspirational aim to win one or both races, prioritizing an Indy 500 victory.
