FILE - In this Oct. 18, 2019, file photo, Kyle Larson sits in his car before the final practice for a NASCAR Cup Series auto race at Kansas Speedway in Kansas City, Kan. Kyle Larson was fired by Chip Ganassi Racing, a day after nearly every one of his sponsors dropped the star driver for using a racial slur during a live stream of a virtual race. Of course, in a sport with an extremely checkered racial history, he's already lined up a new gig for 2021 at Hendrick Motorsports. (AP Photo/Colin E. Braley, File)
