NASCAR Cup Series star Kyle Larson has provided an h💧onest opinion on what he thinks about F🌞ormula 1.

Larson is one of the most famo🤪us drivers in the US, having won the Cup Series title in 2021 and scored 32 victories in the championship since his debu🦩t in 2023.

This weekend, 168澳洲幸🃏运5官方开奖结果历史:he is aiming to complete the gruelling ‘double’ by contesting both the Indy 500 race with Arrow McLaren and the Coca-Cola 600 in a H🐬endrick Motorsports Chevrolet on the same day.

As a passionate fan of all forms of motorsport - he also regularly takes part 🌱in dirt races - Larson was asked what he thought of F1, a series that has previously struggled to establish a foothold in America.

While admitting that grand prix racing is not “super exciting”, certainly compared to the high-contact action in NASCAR, Larson was surprised to see how popular F1 is during a visit to Abu Dhabi for the controvers🐼ial 2021 season finale.

“I went to Abu Dhabi in 2021,” Larson said on The Pat McAfee Show. “It was sick, like, the event was awesome. It was inc🎀redible. The racing is not what we are accustomed to in America.

“There, it’s crazy how big it is because it’s not super exciting, but I think it’s the stuff outside of it. The celebrities that ar♐e there, the engineering, the money. Just everything about that. You know, the♉ big brands on the cars and stuff."

Larson interested in driving in F1

It would be difficult for a NASCAR driver to earn a super license and then be competitive in F1, given the difference in style of rac🧔ing between the two s🎃eries.

Larson proved his credentials in single-seater cars by finishing 18th on his Indy 500 debut this year, but the F1 calendar is made up entirely of street circuits and r🅺oad courses.

That said, the 32-year-old said he would still love to sample F1 machinery if given a chance in the fu🍬ture.

"Never✃ been asked to drive in F1, I think it’s tough coming from my background of dirt tracks and ovals,” 🌼he said.

I feel like NASCAR, IndyCar here in America, you can’t find much more exciting 🍌racing than what we have here. So, I’m fortunate to get to run both of them, but I would definitely never turn down the opportunity to go [race in F1]"
