2-time NASCAR champion Kyle Busch hospitalized with severe illness, family says
CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) --- Two-time NASCAR Cup Series champion Kyle Busch has
been hospitalized with a severe illness and won't compete at Charlotte Motor
Speedway this weekend, his family said Thursday.
His family posted the news on social media and said he is currently undergoing
treatment.
"We ask for understanding and privacy as our family navigates this situation,"
the statement continued.
Busch ranks 24th in the Cup Series standings, with two top-10 finishes in 12
races this season. The 41-year-old driver and Las Vegas native won
championships in 2015 and 2019. Busch is in his fourth season at Richard
Childress Racing after winning titles with Joe Gibbs Racing.
His last win came in 2023, his first with RCR.
