“It’s Fu**ed Up”: Kyle Larson Burst Into Dejection After Painful Darlington Spin

Riding on a wave of victory after his historic win over Buescher in Kansas, Kyle Larson went off to Paris to spend quality time with family. He returned to Darlington with high hopes and an iconic throwback car, but they were shattered quite quickly. He got derailed and ended up on the wall and his reaction was nothing short of gut-wrenching. 

Darlington’s track, they say, is where the greats are made, and that demands the best out of the racers. The track, although, was not kind to most this time. And just like Larson, many left the tracks in a frenzy.

Kyle Larson breaks out in fury after his Darlington mess-up

Even the most experienced drivers make mistakes on the grid sometimes—this is what we saw Kyle Larson go through in Darlington. With 40 laps remaining, Larson was in 7th position, all poised to make it to the top-five finish with his pace and speed. But a flat tire caused him to spin, venturing turn 3, and that led him to a crash. He was sacked and exclaimed, “It’s Fu**ed Up” in frustration as smoke billowed from his car. This just shows fortune changes soon, especially at the NASCAR tracks.​​

But what happened next shows what makes racers iconic—the courage to accept! Larson, after the race, admitted that it was his fault. He mentioned that he was having trouble with the car’s performance during long races, causing it to become loose. To avoid blocking the driver behind him, he allowed him to pass, but in turn 3 his attempt to maintain a wide line resulted in a flat tire and the crash.

He said, “I was struggling, I got really loose at the end of that long run and William [Byron] caught me. …I just kind of hung out there. I was trying to be really wide away from him and I just stayed wide too long and I got hung in the marbles and hit the wall.” He also said it was “my mistake” and he was “not really trying hard at all” which ultimately cost us a race. It wasn’t just Larson who saw his victory hopes dashed; another contender who was on the verge of taking the win faced a similar fate. Moreover, this driver ended up in a dramatic head-to-head showdown!

Chris Buescher has had a bad bout of luck recently. First, he lost at Kansas by just 0.001 seconds- ouch In Darlington, he was about to win but got shoved to the wall for no apparent reason. Buescher had just 10 laps to go and was poised for a visit to the victory lane with his #17 Mustang Darkhorse. But Tyler Reddick tried to claim his lead after dominating the first 174 laps and misjudged his entry. This led to a collision that put both the leaders out of the race and Brad Keselowski taking the victory. 

Post-race at the pit road, they came to a face-to-face heated confrontation and Buescher shoved Reddick. He was brewing with fury, as he was robbed of his spotlight. But Reddick did apologize. He said, “I tried to back out, the last thing I wanted to do was wreck your car. I’m sorry.” But Buescher had nothing to do with his apology and said that he didn’t have the sticker. That doesn’t work for me,” Buescher said. “We don’t have that sticker on my door right now. I need you to be better. We’ve raced each other for so long just fine.”

While his apology was sincere since it was indeed his fault, some, like Kevin Harvick, think that “it was pathetic.” On the latest episode of his NASCAR podcast on FOX, he exclaimed how much he hated that interview.

He said, “I don’t like when these guys go down the road of apologizing so much that it’s just pathetic. That’s how I feel. I just wish they would apologize and say ‘I have to do what I have to do to try to win the race, it didn’t work out I’m sorry.’ But don’t over-apologize, please.

Darlington sure was in a frenzy, with emotions running wild. But we hope drivers are all ready to prove themselves at the upcoming race in Coca-Cola 600.
