LARRY MCREYNOLDS Analyst, FOX NASCAR, NASCAR RACE HUB & NASCAR RACEDAY
LARRY MCREYNOLDS Analyst, FOX NASCAR, NASCAR RACE HUB & NASCAR RACEDAY In 2001, FOX Sports’ first as a NASCAR broadcast partner, two-time DAYTONA 500 champion crew chief Larry McReynolds traded his tools for a microphone and joined legendary driver Darrell Waltrip and veteran broadcaster Mike Joy to comprise the FOX NASCAR broadcast team, forming a combination that remained for 15 years. In 2016, McReynolds embarked on a new challenge as a third, in-race analyst for FOX’s coverage of the NASCAR CUP SERIES, stepping outside the booth to support the FOX NASCAR announce booth with his unique, comprehensive perspective on everything from rule infractions analysis to pit strategy during each race. For the 2019 season, McReynolds took his innovation one step further, moving into FOX Sports’ brand-new, state-of-the-art virtual studio in Charlotte, N.C., where he still serves as a race analyst for all NASCAR CUP SERIES races. McReynolds is credited with building the set’s virtual race car from the ground up, logging countless hours with the FOX Sports graphics team to devise a true representation of a car down to the last bolt. McReynolds also serves as an analyst on NASCAR RACEDAY, the network’s Cup Series prerace shown, and ASCAR RACEDAY-XFINITY, its XFINITY Series prerace show, as well as NASCAR RACE HUB, its daily NASCAR news and highlight program. Furthermore, he co-hosts “The On Track Show” with Danielle Trotta on SiriusXM Radio weekdays at 11:00 AM ET.
