“This is an incredibly painful shock for all of us and a heartbreaking loss for the NASCAR family. Kyle was one of the most talented drivers I’ve ever seen and a racer in the truest sense of the word. He had a fire and competitive spirit that drove him to be great. I watched Kyle grow up in this sport and valued the friendship we shared long after he drove for our organization. As much as he loved to drive a race car, nothing brought him more joy than being a husband, a father and watching his son race. On behalf of everyone at Hendrick Motorsports, our hearts are with Samantha, Brexton, Lennix, Kurt and the Busch family.”
- Rick Hendrick, owner of Hendrick Motorsports
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.
Dear Braden Smith, Fletcher Loyer, and Trey Kaufman-Renn,
Thank you for an incredible four years of college basketball.
What you stand for and represent will never be taken for granted.
Walk proud.
Today.
Tomorrow.
And Forever.
Sincerely,
America
This is not a foul. This is a wedge. A grown man physically pushed another man under the basket, and then went and made a play. Margins for winning are small. This is a big boy play.
