Overview

• Larson crashed out of the Indianapolis 500 on Lap 92 when his No. 17 Arrow McLaren Chevrolet spun into the Turn 2 wall.
• He flew to Charlotte in time to start the Coca-Cola 600 but was eliminated in a multi-car wreck on Lap 245, finishing 37th.
• The Memorial Day ‘Double’ costs teams an estimated $1–2 million while Larson’s combined earnings from both races fell under $300,000.
• Veterans Kevin Harvick and Dale Earnhardt Jr. urged Larson to focus on his NASCAR campaign rather than repeat the Memorial Day ‘Double’.
• Larson said the scheduling windows were too tight for another same-day attempt but expressed hope of returning to a standalone Indy 500 bid.
