Josh Berry hard crash Michigan 2023 video highlight FireKeepers Casino 400 — Josh Berry is done for the day after an extremely hard crash into the outside wall on Lap 51 at Michigan International Speedway.

Josh Berry, who got the nod to start in Sunday’s NASCAR Cup Series FireKeepers Casino 400 after Noah Gragson was handed a suspension due to a like on a questionable social media post, has crashed hard on Lap 51 of the race.

Berry, who was attempting to take 18th position in a four-wide battle with Kyle Larson, Harrison Burton, and Corey LaJoie, would lose control of the No. 42 LEGACY MOTOR CLUB machine.

The Chevrolet Camaro ZL1 would back extremely hard into the outside wall, which would end Berry’s day. Incredibly, every other driver would miss Berry’s car that careened across the track.

Here is a video of the crash:

Berry walked away from the crash under his own power, and the driver was checked and released from the infield care center.
