NASCAR: 6 drivers to buy into for the 2021 season
By James Dunn
NASCAR Cup Series buy: Kyle Larson
The top free agent for the 2021 season finally found a home, and with the biggest and most historic stable in the NASCAR Cup Series.
Although Kyle Larson is on his redemption tour from his 2020 suspension, his talent never went away. It probably won’t take long for him to get back in the groove, especially when the Bristol Motor Speedway dirt race arrives.

Larson, during his time with Chip Ganassi Racing, was always able to get good finishes, along with a couple wins here and there. But one little piece was missing that would have taken him over the top.
Hendrick Motorsports is that one missing piece.
They may not be what they once were, even though a Hendrick Motorsports driver won the championship last year. But they are still competitive and very capable of winning week in and week out.
Larson going to Hendrick Motorsports is just what the doctor ordered for both sides: Larson gets the equipment and speed needed to be a force, and Hendrick Motorsports get a second star to supplement Chase Elliott. It’s a win-win, which makes Larson the best “stock” to buy and invest in going into the 2021 season.
Which other drivers are good “buys” across NASCAR’s top three series heading into the 2021 season? Let me know and let’s keep the debate rolling.
