Hendrick Motorsports driver Kyle Larson stands on the verge of securing another NASCAR Cup Series championship, needing only a strong finish at the season finale at Homestead-Miami Speedway. Larson, driver of the No. 5 Chevrolet, participated in practice and qualifying at Martinsville Speedway on October 31, 2026, as the series heads into its final race.
The championship decider at Homestead will determine whether Larson can add a second title to his resume. The Martinsville session served as the last preparation before the winner-take-all showdown.
