Kyle Larson continues to solidify his dominance within the Hendrick Motorsports team, as he now finds himself on the brink of a remarkable accomplishment. With just 10 more laps led, Larson is set to surpass the total number of laps led by all of his Hendrick teammates combined this season—a testament to his consistent performance and aggressive driving style. This potential milestone underscores just how much of a powerhouse Larson has been in 2025, leading the charge for one of NASCAR’s most storied organizations.
Throughout the season, Larson has shown exceptional control at the front of the pack, frequently setting the pace and dictating race strategies. While his teammates—Chase Elliott, William Byron, and Alex Bowman—have all had their moments of success, none have been able to match Larson’s relentless ability to lead laps across various tracks and conditions. His near-total control in multiple races has made him a standout not just within Hendrick Motorsports, but across the entire Cup Series.
Fans and analysts have taken note of this growing disparity in lap leadership, with some praising Larson for carrying the banner for Hendrick and others questioning whether the team dynamics may shift as a result. His performance is also fueling speculation about his championship potential, especially if he maintains this momentum through the mid and late parts of the season.
As Larson approaches this symbolic benchmark, the focus sharpens on his future races. Just 10 more laps, and he’ll stand alone—proof of his dominance and the gap he’s created between himself and even his talented teammates.
