KANSAS CITY, KS – July 20, 2024 — NASCAR driver Bubba Wallace is reportedly “fighting in the hospital” following a terrifying crash during the NASCAR Cup Series race at Kansas Speedway on Sunday. The violent incident occurred on Lap 188 when Wallace’s No. 23 Toyota was caught in a multi-car wreck, slamming into the outside wall at high speed before being hit again by oncoming traffic.
Emergency crews responded swiftly, extracting Wallace from the car and transporting him to a nearby hospital. While NASCAR initially reported he was conscious and alert, further updates revealed more severe internal injuries, with Wallace now undergoing intensive care and observation.
