Quotes from Kyle Larson

People tell me all the time you have to be mentally tough to win the championship, and I feel like enough people hype it up to where you have to act different come playoff time. But I'm not a tough guy. So I don't know how to be tough. I don't know what I'm 'supposed' to be doing.

I have all the respect in the world for Matt Kenseth.

I think the definition of 'the greatest racecar driver' is different to everybody.

In sprint car wrecks, just slam your head against a table a couple times and that's probably what it feels like. You get whiplash, all that stuff.

I haven't gotten overly confident or cocky. I think staying level and humble has helped me through the bad times and the good times.

I like country, and I like some classic rock, too.

Now that I'm at Hendrick, it makes me appreciate my years I had at Ganassi even more. We did way more and accomplished way more than we probably should have compared to what resources Hendrick has.

I know deep down I'm not a racist.

I never really realized how privileged I was in the way I grew up.

This sport is so tough so it's nice when you go run a sprint car and go win a race.

Being labeled a racist has hurt the most, but I brought that on myself.

My phone rang and I got to have a meeting with Rick Hendrick, and my life changed ever since.
