Kyle Larson said he had “a moment” during Monday’s NTT INDYCAR SERIES test at Phoenix Raceway, and believe it or not, he appreciated having the car briefly get sideways on him. “The car felt a lot different early in the run, and I kind of had my mind made up that it was going to feel tighter. “Honestly, nothing about yesterday felt way different than a Cup car feels like,” said Larson, who won a race at Phoenix en route to the 2021 Cup Series championship. “When you’re just comparing data to 2018, the cars were quite a bit different then, the tires were different, all of that. It felt like I was getting close to having a moment, and then I did. It’s all part of learning the differences between driving the two different types of cars.
