RELATED:

The 62nd running of the Daytona 500 will mostly be remembered for the grizzly wreck involving Ryan Newman on the final lap. The frightening crash occurred when teammate Ryan Blaney nudged Newman's No. 6 car ahead of Hamlin on the backstretch. But extra contact forced Newman to spin out, as his car flung violently into the wall and flipped into the air before being hit hard again by Corey LaJoie as he crossed the finish line. Newman's car landed on its roof and skidding across the track.

    1. Why do you act like you’re in the loop with them. Nobody cares that you give good wishes. You’re like a hallmark holiday. Seriously though man. Get a life.

    2. @Scott Gossett wow. Did he say he was in the loop with them? Lots of people are sending good wishes and praying for him and his family, including myself. And all you can do is bash the well wishers? Not cool.

    1. no we aren’t, but thanks for the generic religious blanket statement social media post in the comment section.

    2. I’ve tried ‘praying’ for a cure for different cancers, autism, and to end world hunger on a regular basis but somehow ‘God’ never listens to them. More proof that he’s not as powerful as you Bible thumpers perceive him to be so it’s up to our best scientists and doctors to find a solution to these issues instead.

  1. My prayers, are with you in recovering from this accident.Hope your up and around soon.👍👍👍👍🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

  2. God be with you Ryan you actually went slightly Airborne crossing the field this was a horrible wreck please take your time and heal you’re a winner God love you God bless!

  3. With as little information coming out as there is, I wouldn’t be surprised to hear brain injury or paralyzed. Hoping for the best, preparing for the worst.

    1. I think Newman is dead. His wife left him the week before. Roush – Fenway release a statement with the *WRONG* date?
      NASCAR is saying Newman is alive hoping with time Newman will fade off into the footnote.
