Ryan Blaney will be in the 12th fleet of Penske, the Coca-Cola 600, with the driver's hood adorned with Bodyarmor Chill drinks. Blaney's NASCAR Cup series colleague Kyle Larson will try to do “doubles”.

“Two” is one of the toughest feats any racing driver may try to do in his career. It involves racing 500 and then flew to Charlotte for the Coca-Cola 600.

Blaney told Fox News Digital that the attempt to watch Larson last year was “neat”.

“It's the biggest day of the game,” Blaney said. “You had Monaco early, and then you got the Indians and we ended up with 600. I watched Monaco in the morning, and I cheered for the 500 Pence guys, and then I was ready to play. I think it was a great feat. Last year, he didn't do it like he did last year, and it was a thing like him. Do it all.”

Given that the Penske drivers were in the Indy 500, Pique Blaney's interest seemed to have attracted Pique Blaney's interest.

“But, yes, that’s something I’ve been thinking about,” Blaney said. “You never know, maybe on the road if I had the chance. I'm with a great team that had the chance to do it, but we'll see. You never know, we'll figure it out.”

Larson, John Andreti, Tony Stewart, Robbie Gordon and Kurt Bush all tried this feat. Stewart was the only driver who completed two races on the same day.

No driver won any race while trying.

Larson hopes changes will happen on Sunday.
