DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. — Ryan Newman was involved in a ghastly crash on the final lap of the Daytona 500 on Monday night, hospitalizing him with non-life-threatening injuries.
Fox opted not to broadcast Newman's removal, which was shielded by large black screens put up by track crews. Breathtaking crashes are common at Daytona International Speedway, where drivers racing for position at 200 mph and in tight quarters often make contact. Denny Hamlin won the race for Joe Gibbs Racing, his second straight victory in the season opener and third in the last five years. The team celebrated near the start-finish line and again when confetti flew in victory lane, prompting Gibbs to later apologize.
It wasn't the first crash like this for Newman at Daytona or at another superspeedway, the Talladega track in Alabama. His car went airborne and flipped repeatedly in the 2003 Daytona 500. He landed on his roof in that one and did again at Talladega in 2009. “It's all about competitiveness and fun,” he said."I want to have fun with my life. If I can have fun in this garage doing it and get paid what I feel like I deserve to get paid, then I'm all for it. It's got to be fun and it's got be rewarding in more ways than one.
Who cares. Nobody watches this crap anyway.
After seeing this video, it’s without question a miracle he’s still alive. I know nothing of the sport, but an obvious scare similar to Earnhardt Sr., & some would say even scarier than that. Thoughts & Prayers to Ryan, his family & his crew. Life & family trumps Sports - always
Fuck yes!!! Pull through big guy!! RyanJNewman
