Redemption and resurrection – Kyle Larson’s NASCAR Cup title success at Phoenix on Sunday continues Hendrick Motorsports’ own comeback story as well as his personal narrative after being banned from the sport just over 18 months ago.
While Larson was in the wilderness, not knowing if he’d ever race at the top level in stock cars again, never mind win a title, Hendrick was knuckling down to get its own house in order.
