Kyle Larson failed to finish top 10 in either of the first two playoff races. The Hendrick Motorsports star posted a 19th-place finish at Darlington and recorded a 12th-place effort at the World Wide Technology Raceway. Going into Bristol, Larson sits third in the points standings.

Bristol is one of Larson's better tracks in recent memory. He's won three times at the 0.5-mile track, including the last two races the circuit has ran there. Larson dominated both races, leading 462 of 500 laps in September 2024 and 411 of 500 laps last March.

Kyle Larson has three victories in 2025, which came at Homestead-Miami, Bristol and Kansas. He's seeking his second career championship in 2025 and second with HMS.
