Kyle Larson: Fifth-Place in Cook Out 400

Larson finished fifth in the Cook Out 400 NASCAR Cup Series race at Martinsville Speedway on Sunday afternoon.

Analysis:

Larson had a steady and strong performance at the South Virginia oval on Sunday. The No. 5 Chevrolet wasn't strong enough to lead any laps, but Larson would etch out a spot among the Top 10 for the full 400 laps. He would attempt to run down his teammate, Chase Elliott, in the closing laps but would fall short at the finish. It was Larson's fourth Top 5 of the season.
