Vasser Sullivan started the IMSA sports car season strong enough that it was quickly apparent a championship was finally in reach for the Lexus factory program. Team owners Jimmy Vasser and James “Sulli” Sullivan think it might have saved the season. However, Jimmy and I are really glad that it did happen because it was a wakeup call, to the two of us and to the team,” Sullivan said. Vasser Sullivan ran Busch in the Rolex 24 at Daytona in 2020. And, if the opportunity presented itself, Vasser Sullivan would like to compete in IMSA's top class.

INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — Kyle Larson looked like a natural turning his first laps in an IndyCar. “Like I said in (a Cup car) you'd be really tight in (turn) one, like you're off the gas. You'd be tight in (turn) two and then you would have better balance in (turns) three and four,” Larson said. “ This has way more downforce and speed than a Cup car, but the balance of all four corners felt way more similar than a stock car. At one point, Larson accidentally hit a button on the steering wheel that he said prevented the car from moving.

Jan 12 (Reuters) - Kyle Larson will attempt the Indianapolis 500 and NASCAR Coca-Cola 600 double next year after announcing on Thursday he would join Arrow McLaren Racing for a one-off run at the famed Brickyard. Larson, the 2021 NASCAR Cup Series champion, will become the first driver to attempt the double since Kurt Busch raced in both events in 2014. Only four drivers have attempted the double of racing in Indy 500 in Indianapolis and flying to Charlotte, North Carolina to jump in a car and run the Coca-Cola 600 later that same day. While Rick Hendrick's stock car teams have won a record 291 Cup Series races, the Indy 500 will mark Hendrick Motorsports first IndyCar series event. McLaren have routinely added notable names to their driver lineup for the Indy 500, including twice Formula One world champion Fernando Alonso.
