This will be an added honor for any driver appointed.Following the vacancy in the driver’s position, Kyle Larson, a Hendrick Motorsports driver, didn’t shy away from asking for the position as he tweeted:“Need a driver?”Kyle Larson@KyleLarsonRacinNeed a driver?! twitter.com/teamhendrick/s…Hendrick Motorsports@TeamHendrickGoing global. @TeamChevy | #NextGenG56 hendrickmotorsports.com/news/articles/…10:56 AM · Mar 17, 20222668164Going global. @TeamChevy | #NextGenG56 hendrickmotorsports.com/news/articles/…Need a driver?! twitter.com/teamhendrick/s…Kyle Larson is known for being outgoing and aggressive. His common phrase “all I want is to race” is one of the factors that pushes him to go for more.Kyle Larson has a high chance of being appointed in the upcoming 2023 Garage 56 programThe last time NASCAR participated in Le Mans was in 1976 with three drivers, driving the Dodge Charger and Ford Torino. In the upcoming 2023 Garage 56, around three to four drivers will participate in shifts of around 24 hours.As we await the announcement of the driver, Hendrick hilariously suggested that they are going to put retired Jeff Gordon on a diet so that he can participate.From the looks of things, Larson is considered one of the top picks. Following his dominant performance in the 2021 season that saw him earn 10 wins and a Cup Series.Larson has also shown wonderful performances in the current season as he has already secured one win and one pole. His contributions to Hendrick Motorsports are some of the things making him one of the best fit to take on the role.
