Kyle Larson is a back-to-back NASCAR Cup champion.
Larson clinched his third career title Sunday at Homestead-Miami during the first stage, finishing fourth. He becomes the first repeat champion since Jimmie Johnson.
Crew chief Cliff Daniels radioed the news under caution after Chase Briscoe’s engine failed, and Larson replied, “That was a little anticlimactic, but that’s cool.”
Ryan Blaney won the race, passing Tyler Reddick with two laps to go for his fourth win of the season and his first at Homestead. William Byron was third, Christopher Bell fourth, and Denny Hamlin sixth. Larson finished twelfth.
