WTF is this. I've watched Ryan's grandfather, uncle and dad race my entire life. Where do you even pull this shite from.

It’s been an hour and a half and not even a single legit report that he was alert when taken to the hospital.

Seems at the very least, that would have been released if he had been



Yeah, I hate to say it, but I agree with this.

Really hope he pulls through

I'm all for rooting on Newman right now but let's not warp reality. Newman has never been a clean driver.

Not good


Seems like if he died they would’ve announced it or most likely would’ve leaked by now.
So the only 2 options I can think are:

1. Surgery (taking a while)

2. Very bad Head injury (discussing options with his family)

You're a fricking moron. Not Blaney's fault, not Hamlin's fault. It's plate racing dumbass


So you can’t take your foot off the gas? Just because it’s a plate race does not give you an excuse to take someone out… Newman is a clean racer and he got raced dirty.….Period !!

This from Denny Hamlin's spotter:

2- I then made a beeline down to Jason Jarrett to check on the status of Ryan. I did not communicate any more info to DH after that, because I was only concerned with finding out info on Ryan. That is 100% on me, and I’M EXTREMLY SORRY.

Any injury that has the potential to be head/neck/spine will be treated like that. Doesn't matter if they are transporting him 100 yards. The only way to prevent additional injury is to treat any injury as serious when it comes to that part of the body. They wouldn't toss him on a stretcher and roll out without having him totally secure

Blaney stated in post race he knew he couldn’t get by Newman so he was going to push him to the win. If you know anything about the front tri-oval, you can easily lose the back end of those cars. . .

Blaney wasn't trying to take him out. The cars get loose when pushed.

they haven't used plates a few years.

But you're right. Nobody at fault. Just racing.

The tri oval is actually the most difficult part of the track due to their being much less banking.

I was worried he would burn. That fuel was pouring out right next to an open flame.
