The NASCAR Cup Series season has been full of surprises, but one of the biggest shocks came this past weekend when Kyle Larson qualified for the Championship 4 with a win at Las Vegas Motor Speedway. Larson, who had been struggling for much of the season, put together a masterful performance to take the checkered flag and punch his ticket to the Championship 4.
The win was especially impressive considering that Larson had been struggling for much of the season. He had not won a race since June and had only managed to finish in the top 10 in four of the last 13 races. But at Las Vegas, Larson was on fire, leading a race-high 146 laps and holding off a hard-charging Chase Elliott to take the win.
The win was Larson’s first since June, and it was enough to propel him into the Championship 4. He joins Joey Logano, Martin Truex Jr., and Kevin Harvick as the four drivers who will compete for the championship at Phoenix Raceway next month.
Larson’s win at Las Vegas was a huge surprise, but it was also a testament to his skill as a driver. He has been one of the most consistent drivers in NASCAR over the past few years, and he proved that he still has what it takes to win races. With the Championship 4 looming, Larson will be looking to carry his momentum into Phoenix and take home the title.
It has been a roller coaster season for Kyle Larson, but he is now one step closer to achieving his goal of becoming a NASCAR champion. His win at Las Vegas was an impressive performance, and it will certainly give him confidence heading into Phoenix. The Championship 4 will be an exciting race, and Larson will be looking to make history by taking home the title.
