Kyle Larson: “A little embarrassing.”
On Sunday, Kyle Larson clinched his third NASCAR Cup Series title. He’s now tied for 5th on the all-time champions list.
After the race at Homestead-Miami Speedway, NASCAR brought out the trophy. And, it’s nearly as tall as the ‘Tiny Kyle’ himself.
The Bill France Cup weighs 68 pounds and stands at 37 inches tall. The previous trophy used in 2014-2016 came in at just 27 pounds.

Kyle Larson comments on lifting the trophy
“My wrist buckled,” Kyle Larson stated via the Happy Hour Podcast.
“What you grab onto is not like thick. So, it kind of was slipping in my hands. But, once I got it up, I felt good about it.”
“A little embarrassing. I wish I would have gotten it right. But, at least the pictures look good.”
