Kyle Larson Unscathed After Spectacular Sprint Car Crash

The prominent NASCAR driver, Kyle Larson, was involved in a shocking accident on Friday night during a sprint car race in Wisconsin, from which he emerged unharmed. The former Cup Series champion was in second position in a World of Outlaws competition at the Plymouth Dirt Track, when his winged vehicle flew through the air before impacting the retaining fence. Larson, 32, managed to get out of the car without injuries. He attributed the incident to the breakage of the right rear axle, or something similar.

He just launched me and I was a passenger. It’s a bummer, but I felt really good following Rico Abreu and finally catching the traffic and starting to race there. I’m glad to be okay, it was a big hit, but overall, I feel good.

In addition to his participation in stock car and sprint races, Larson has competed in the Indianapolis 500 in the last two years. Larson is expected to be behind the wheel of the No. 5 Chevrolet from Hendrick Motorsports in Sunday’s Cup Series race at Michigan International Speedway. The 2021 Cup Series champion has achieved three victories and ten top-ten finishes this season, and currently holds second place in the overall standings, 48 points behind the leader, William Byron.
