NASCAR has officially granted Kyle Larson a playoff waiver after he missed the Coca-Cola 600 to participate in the Indianapolis 500. Despite NASCAR's rule that drivers must start every race to be playoff-eligible, Larson was given a waiver due to the rain delay at the Indy 500, allowing him to continue competing for the 2024 NASCAR Cup Series title. NASCAR's history of granting playoff waivers, including instances of injuries and suspensions, influenced the decision to grant Larson the waiver, albeit after a delay that caused uncertainty in the racing community.
