Kyle Larson gets a new pit crew

Kyle Larson will have a new group of pit-crew members servicing his No. 5 Hendrick Motorsports Chevrolet in Sunday’s race at Darlington Raceway.

Scheduled to service Larson’s ride this week are front tire changer Jafar Hall, rear changer Mike Moss, jackman Eric Ludwig, tire carrier Allen Stallings and fueler Brandon Harder. Harder is the only returning member to the No. 5 team that serviced the car one week ago at Martinsville Speedway.

The new quartet of members comes from Spire Motorsports’ No. 7 Chevrolet, where they began the year with driver Justin Haley. Hendrick Motorsports supplies pit crews to Spire’s three-car outfit. The foursome of pit athletes that previously pitted for Larson will now pit Haley’s car starting at Darlington: front changer Blaine Anderson, rear changer Calvin Teague, jackman Brandon Johnson and tire carrier RJ Barnette.
