Kyle Larson reiterates ‘second place sucks,’ but it’s better than third

CONCORD, N.C. — It’s perfectly clear by this time that Kyle Larson will never be satisfied with finishing second in the Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series – or any other series he races in.

But just in case anyone forgot, he made the point again after yet another second-place run in Saturday night’s Monster Energy All-Star Race at Charlotte Motor Speedway. The driver of the No. 42 Chip Ganassi Racing Chevrolet also has four second-place finishes in the first 11 regular-season Monster Energy races.

“I saw an interview (World of Outlaws sprint car driver) Donny Schatz did (Friday) night,” Larson said.
