Kyle Larson picked up the 2014 Sunoco Sprint Cup Series Rookie of the Year award after an impressive season.
Eight drivers (Larson, Justin Allgaier, Michael Annett, Alex Bowman, Austin Dillon, Parker Kligerman, Ryan Truex and Cole Whitt) were up for the award, but Larson easily beat the field.
In his first full-time Cup season, the 22-year-old picked up eight top-5's, 17 top-10’s and won a pole for the GoBowling.com 400 at Pocono Raceway in August.
Larson will enter his second Cup season with Chip Ganassi Racing next year.
