Kyle Larson crashed out of the Indianapolis 500 near the midway point Sunday, ending the NASCAR superstar's second shot at finishing both “The Greatest Spectacle in Racing” and the Coca-Cola 600 in Charlotte in the same day.

Larson had been mired deep in traffic throughout the first half of the race, which was delayed about 35 minutes because of a rain shower that passed over the speedway.
