Ryan Newman's car flipped over, was crashed into and caught fire at the finish line of the Daytona 500 on Monday as he tried to hold onto the lead.
Newman was not immediately responsive on his radio as medics rushed onto the track. The FOX television broadcast said he was being taken straight to the hospital.
A stretcher is next to Newman’s car. Crews are using black screens to keep fans from seeing. And media has just been told to leave the pits. #DAYTONA500
