In 2025, NASCAR Cup Series regulars Kyle Larson and Christopher Bell will face off multiple times throughout the season. This will happen on Sundays and weekdays. Thanks to Joe Gibbs Racing, Bell is once again allowed to race on dirt. Here’s how the two dirt racing all-stars have matched up this season.
The first time these two squared off would be at the 2025 Tulsa Shootout. Bell would win one of the two drivers head-to-head matchups, walking away the winner of a dramatic one-two finish in the Non-Wing Outlaw A-Main. Results are via MyRacePass.com.
On Monday night at the Chili Bowl Nationals in Tulsa, Oklahoma, Christopher Bell dominated the OReilly Auto Parts O’Reilly Race of Champions. In their head-to-head battle, Larson struggled to keep up as Bell won from the pole. Results are via MyRacePass.com.
Larson would have his revenge in Saturday’s Chili Bowl Nationals Championship Feature. Much like Bell in the Race of Champions, Larson started from the pole and won, with Bell remaining around midpack throughout the race. Results are via MyRacePass.com.
The two met once again in early February at the World of Outlaws Federated Auto Parts DIRTcar Nationals at Volusia Speedway Park in Florida. Despite strong starts in the Thursday night feature, it would be the first time in 2025 that neither driver won when facing off against the other. Results are via MyRacePass.com.
The two would face off twice on Thursday night, first in a six-lap Dash race and ultimately in the feature. This would be perhaps the most memorable finish of the year for the two, as Bell won the feature over Larson by just 0.050 seconds. Results are via MyRacePass.com.
This list will be updated race to race as the season continues.
