Kyle Busch experienced a challenging race day, crashing three times during the NASCAR event. His troubles began when he spun in Turn 1 after contact with Noah Gragson, causing both cars to spin and bringing out a caution. While running a lap down and outside the top-30, Busch got loose and backed into the outside wall. The situation worsened when he hit the wall again under caution due to wet weather conditions, which ultimately ended his race for the day. Busch's team confirmed that the damage was severe enough to retire him from the event. The No. 8 RCR driver also faced a red flag period due to rain.
Third time that Kyle Busch has crashed today, and technically the second time under this caution period. Weather struck after he spun on the backstretch two hours ago which necessitated the red flag. #NASCAR
.@KyleBusch just slammed the wall under caution on his wet weather tires and is done for the the day. That man is not having a good time this last month or so. Geez.
