We are saddened and heartbroken to share the news of the passing of Kyle Busch, a two-time Cup champion and one of our sport's greatest and fiercest drivers. He was 41 years old.
We extend our deepest condolences to the Busch family, Richard Childress Racing and the entire motorsports community.
@PPistone@TheMikeBagley guys I’m at a loss as we all are. My girls loved @KyleBusch. My 10 tear old cried so hard when we told her. These drivers (and you guys) become family to us fans. We feel like we lost one of our own family members…because we did. 💔
Statement Regarding Kyle Busch from the Busch Family:
“Kyle has experienced a severe illness resulting in hospitalization. He is currently undergoing treatment and will not compete in any of his scheduled activities this weekend at Charlotte Motor Speedway. We ask for understanding and privacy as our family navigates this situation.”
We have a special tribute show to Kyle Busch airing now until midnight with @TheAlexHayden and Friday morning #TMDNASCAR will air from 7-11 am ET as we remember Kyle @SiriusXMNASCAR
