Taking on his first Indy 500 this weekend, is Kyle Larson just as capable as Max Verstappen? One of his rivals believes so...

Former F1 driver turned IndyCar star Alexander Rossi believes Kyle Larson could compete with Max Verstappen in equal machinery.

Following this display, Larson then flew to North Carolina to take part in NASCAR’s All-Star race that night where he finished fourth at North Wilkesboro Speedway. Rossi, who will compete in the Indy 500 as Larson’s teammate, believes the 31-year-old could absolutely compete with Max Verstappen if the opportunity arose., “I think he’s already towards the top, so I don’t know. Put him at the top? Like, he’s ‘The Man.’”

“We know he’s good but, for him to come into our world, and in his first event win, like, that doesn’t reflect well on us.”
