Kyle Larson's ride to redemption in NASCAR has ended up in Victory Lane.
In just his fourth start since being suspended most of the 2020 Cup Series season, Larson took control of a wild race on Sunday at Las Vegas Motor Speedway and cruised to victory in the Pennzoil 400.
Larson, 28, was fired from his Chip Ganassi Racing No. 42 team last April for using a racial slur during the broadcast of an iRacing event and was also indefinitely suspended by NASCAR at the time.
He was hired by Hendrick Motorsports to drive its No. 5 Chevrolet last October beginning with the 2021 season and was cleared to return to NASCAR racing activities beginning on Jan. 1.
By late in the race, Larson had out-dueled Denny Hamlin for the lead and nearly blew it when he missed the entry to pit road during his green-flag pit stop.
Larson's No. 5 Chevrolet was so fast, he still came out with a more than 1.5-second lead after the stops and with no further caution flags, he topped Brad Keselowski by more 3.5 seconds at the finish.
'It was so much fun to drive. I could go where I wanted to. Drafting early in the runs was tough,' Larson said. 'Thank you so much Mr. H (Rick Hendrick, team owner), Jeff Gordon and Hendrick Motorsports for the amazing opportunity I've been gifted. This is definitely special.
'I know this is Rick's most special paint scheme for obvious reasons and it's just an honor to grab (the win) our first time out. I'm just blessed. Thanks everybody for coming out and everybody watching on TV.
'That was some fun racing on the restarts. I hope everybody enjoyed, I know I did. I had fun racing Brad and Denny and everybody. Tried not to get in their way when I missed my green-flag stop but we were able to have a good enough car to hold them all off.'
The win is Larson's first since the 2019 season, seventh of his Cup Series career and first-ever on a 1.5-mile intermediate track. Larson had been considered a favorite to win the Cup series' first dirt race in more than 50 years later this month at Bristol, Tenn.
Said Larson's crew chief, Cliff Daniels, who earned his first career win: 'It feels amazing. God is so good. It's been such a journey for this team for a lot of reasons.
'I owe so much to Jimmie (Johnson) and so much to Chad (Knaus) for what they've done. Kyle drove a great race, the crew was lights out on pit road. Just so thankful.'
