It’s been a frustrating 2022 NASCAR Cup Series season for Kyle Busch, and that trend continued in Sunday’s Autotrader EchoPark 500 at Texas Motor Speedway.
Busch, who was eliminated from the Playoffs last weekend at Bristol Motor Speedway, lost control of his No. 18 Interstate Batteris Toyota Camry in turn 4 on lap 50.
The No. 18 car went hard into the outside wall, causing significant damage to the left rear of the car. Here is video of Busch’s crash:

Following the crash, Busch immediately put the window net down, a sign to medical personnel that he was okay. He then drove to the garage area, signifying that his day is done.
Busch was running in the top-five at the time of the crash.
