I have huge respect for Larson. He recognizes SVG is the guy on streets/roads. He's not getting butt hurt, he's stepping up his game, learning, adapting and improving his craft.

[@kiwi32ful]

Imagine Larson and SVG on the same team.. would be epic after few years on all courses!!

[@mattjames2728]

Bathurst ... on the same team co driving. Be epic.

[@kiwi32ful]

@mattjames2728 now we're getting somewhere!!

[@fishhuntadventure]

I read it as respect and decent racing. Like Mark Martin stuff. Sorta the other reason why xfinity is Nascara’s too series. The other being they even look more competitive and like a stock car than the dang Spittoon Cup cars.

[@roo1756]

​@@mattjames2728 I would kill to see this man

[@mattjames2728]

Kyle Larson you are welcome in New Zealand anytime !! Hope to see you behind the wheel of a supercar at bathurst one day !

[@stu290bushrider]

Be cool to see Kyle here in a Sprint Car with Shane this summer.

[@5lipperysausage]

@@stu290bushrider Yeah he hasnt been down since he moved to Hendrix. Would be great to see him down here again

[@GDA_Sam]

​@@5lipperysausagewasn't the last time he raced here, he had that massive crash at the Springs?

[@5lipperysausage]

@@GDA_Sam yeah I think so. I know Rick wasn't as keen as Chip was on letting him travel down here.

[@paulhenry5497]

Kyle Larson Raced in Auckland b4 he got Married, and kicked our ass, he's a top bloke,

[@Beejayd1zL]

People don't realise that Larson is a GUN driver and he respects a great driver. The fact he is using this to learn, adapt and improve just shows he maturity being a top driver. Him and SVG are guns. SVG is amazing. Great respect for each other, well done ladz. Just think about them being in the same car co driving like an event like Bathurst or something, be dream.

[@volksdeutschewaffenss9670]

clean hard racing between svg and larson, so exciting, not wreaking one another, true sportsman ship, WOWWWWWW

[@crazyhorse2995]

Pity Kyle cant do Bathurst in Australia. Then he would find out why SVG is so good. Elevation n a few right turns never did anyones skills any harm.

[@colbemugen9932]

denny could never

[@ogdog123]

Why can’t Kyle do Bathurst. Does it conflict with NASCAR season?

[@rodbrown8306]

Larsen is such a Pro, nothing is personal, he just sees it as an opportunity to get better now with SVG in the mix and no doubts he will.

[@Inkrebelnz]

Larson has the attitude of a great race car driver in the making. Like cheese good things take time

[@Sportszilla830]

It seems that kyle grew up. By coming to hendrick mototsports

[@philmcleod111]

Larson was a class act, He never downgraded SVG and showed respect, Not like the little rich kid Gibbs,

[@joshuahsimons9587]

Kid beat Larson

[@Mass1fy]

I mean Ty’s gotten better and he is pretty chill and not that bratty. He’s matured.

[@jaidedeye]

When did Ty talk down about SVG?

[@Mass1fy]

@@jaidedeye exactly

[@sdfiguh]

Hes a young kid that tries to sound overly professional and it comes off douchy. Go cry elsewhere. Ty gibbs will be one of the best drivers representing nascar sooner than later

[@MustangSprint]

G’day from New Zealand, Great drive from Larson, he’s a natural Wheel man. We’d love to see you over here in NZ with the Giz, after the season is over

[@stephenwilliams4583]

Much respect to the guys for being genuine and honest. It really breaks the American stereotypes we receive overseas. We'll raced by both guys. And bring on tomorrow. And Kyle. Really classy drive in stage 1 no cheap shots. Respect again.😊

[@kiwibanterfan2215]

how humble and self depricating is Kyle Larson...wow... what a guy! Legend! Love the openess and gracious manner. Kiwi guy loving watching SVG doing well. Its awesome racing...better that Supercars!!

[@adamland7672]

Not even that big of a nascar fan but nascar in Chicago is can’t miss tv. The feeder series along with the cup series. If nascar can keep and promote talent like Larson and SVG and prioritize the best of the best and tracks that are challenging rather than BS stage racing and green white checkereds the series might actually be respectable internationally one day

[@dmishaw9998]

As a nascar car fan 100% agree

[@cheerful2345]

Absolutely. Also ditch the stage stuff. It's horrible.

[@piedmontrailfan81]

you lost me at stage racing 😂

[@seantaylor7431]

This was some of SVG’s best work I can remember today! His talent is Just out of this world, what a great race today.

[@wew5499]

Kyle Larson ... a different breed. Prob because he's west coast So down to earth and just loves to race We love you Kyle and look forward to many more years of watching you smoke everybody. Nice job!

[@cptvane3439]

That Gibbs kid is pretty good ngl

[@dustedstar5158]

SVG is 2 corners ahead of them

[@The_Absolute_Dog]

Can't say I ever watched much Nascar before, being a Kiwi it's not as big on our radar. But damn Kyle Larson is just phenomenal! And a class act to boot! I'd love to see him at Bathurst one day. This Gibbs lad has an extremely promising future too!

[@Torpey935]

Man huge respect to Larson an gibbs,no negativity at all ,respect ,larson an gibbs need to go to supercars theyll love it

[@bennyb6071]

Larson true professional and Gibbs maturity is growing fast, both outstanding drivers

[@stevegraham3817]

Last year Kyle said that he was watching SVGs race craft to see what he could learn. I wonder if Austin Hill took some notes on how to race cleanly and respectfully. What I did notice is that AH freaked out when he saw SVG in his mirrors and lost 3 places. lol. I honestly hope he can get over it one day, but it means he is going to have to take a couple of steps up the maturity ladder. SVG wouldn't want him scarred for life either. Hill gives the finger, SVG gives the thumbs up, for a good battle, I hope they shared a beer and swapped notes after the race.

[@thomaskrebs8110]

After Joey put the 15 on 8, I suppose thats it for Hailie.

[@Kindertucky]

I'm starting to respect this Gibbs kid's driving. Devastating he lost he dad hours after he won the championship

[@joealtamuro]

Could it be that Shane’s background of driving on the right side of the car has helped him create these unique angles and passing opportunities?

[@gerardcrabb4556]

They do more Street races in Supercars sets up moves through series of corners...

[@bmortloff]

I think it's just the decades of flat, squared off, tight street courses in Australia have given the teams and drivers a good understanding of what's works.

[@techshedlington3106]

If you bang on guys your racing in SuperCars then you get penalised.. so you learn how to set up a pass move …

[@gerardcrabb4556]

@@techshedlington3106 SVG used to use redress gave you shot at passing if it didn't workout gave place back till it got banned after crash at Bathurst...

[@richlounder2465]

Larson is class, well done lad very exciting!

[@4grizzle1]

Great job SVG class act Larson

[@trent7736]

My goats 🎉

[@TheSaturnV]

These young guys just learned some more of old man Shane's tricks. They'll be able to use them against him starting tomorrow.

[@Turok_Nz]

what a race just awesome t see some real hard racing thats clean, huge respect for Kyle and ty and the pack for the eye candy they delivered today. lost interest when bashin for the win became the norm....... good to see that this gen would rather fight fair and hard and take it as it falls.... y'all are real racers

[@johnleonard8311]

Everyone needs to go and look at Australian Super Car series. Most of the drivers there are great and their races are fun to watch.

[@leecoates6524]

im a huge SVG fan in Australia but im amazed how clean the other drivers are when racing him Austin hill got into SVG at cota and stop him from winning but no one else is racing him hard

[@thomaskrebs8110]

respect is a two way door

[@euandykes]

V8 super cars have fixed diff locks, skinny tires and tracks that want to throw cars into walls. The drivers have to prime the brake pressure before standing on the peddle. V8 super car drivers can flat shift the gears by rev matching. SVG is the GOAT in V8 super cars. He's only warming up in NASCAR.

[@jeanmillburg3343]

Respect for Larson. Hope street racing returns to chicago next summer when we have a normal dry month of no rain. Like to see Kyle challenge shane and beat him on Chicago's street course. Kyle brought in the infinity race Saturday made a fun race to watch.

[@batchmotorsport]

Love the drivers been asked for feedback about the track/event. Was that from Pockrass?

[@DukeOfTwist]

Yes trust Bob to ask what can be improved to make Sunday a better day.

[@jenifferschmitz8618]

will nascar be able to keep SVG ????or bring over some of svgs mates

[@paulinebecker6681]

I feel sorry for the Xfinity drivers it was their race but you'd never know it.

[@wooloongabba]

Kyle Larson great racer IQ , Refreshing in Nascar as most racers are Egotards

[@fast_mattw8059]

Any reporters that cover Nascar at these pressers….read this. Can you guys and girls do a couple things please for us. This is for the majority of you. Stop giving us a statement before your question, simply ask the question, because all you guys and girls do is fumble all over the questions after rambling stuff the driver and the fans already know. Next, stop mumbling and speak up! And lastly, dont be so nervous, I can hear the shaking in almost all of your voices, these drivers are chill, just ask the question. That is all, thanks.

[@joshuahsimons9587]

Ty should still b full time Xfinity

[@jaidedeye]

Huh? How many rookies are projected to be in the playoffs their first Cup season?

[@jamesnk5991]

@@jaidedeye He's not a rookie anymore. It is his second year. Still, his results are impressive for a second-year driver.

[@rexprangnell6815]

No it's all about tight competitive racing,if you watch Shane in super car series 😀he keeps tight to the front created pressure and then going from right to left and versa he confuses driver and then makes the kill ,it's in the man (kiwi blood) we always up against better cars he comes from behind for the kill ❤nascar

[@thomascoker3600]

you know why they had a blast because shane is a better driver than any of them, he beats them almost every time made me a fan of SVG

Shane will out drive them any day and without foul play🇳🇿🇳🇿🇳🇿like he received couple days ago

[@roscius6204]

nice humility from Kyle, he'll be quicker next time too.

[@shakkjohnson5701]

crazy how young nascar looks today, seems like we have jus a handful of stars and half of these about to retire, then its gonna be like a bunch little kids running the place, surely a few can take the conor mcgregor secret recipe and carve out a household name for themselves, gotta have a nasty potty mouth tho and a bad boy attitude but boy do they ever become huge mega stars, i remember 25+ big names at the track every week back in day, weird its so powderpuffy now, strict $penatly rules if you get out of line, gotta be extra juicy and sweet to media, crazy

[@xdude2x]

When is Ty gonna win a Cup race?

[@jasonmoore8518]

Just random but Charlotte road cores JGR is pretty good there.

[@crustydownunder]

If NASCAR wants to improve the race for both the drivers and the spectators/viewers, they should toss out that stupid stage BS. You could run first place up until the final stage and wind up running back of the field, through no fault of your own, IMHO.

[@hackney7106]

Gibbs is not in the same league as Shane,& never will be.

[@hrt6669]

Kid sitting there fidgeting his fingers. He must think he's better than everyone!! Bloody immature.

[@K-mc9lv]

How does him fidgeting his fingers make you think that he thinks he is better than everyone lol it doesn’t even make sense
