Kyle Busch, nhà vô địch NASCAR Cup Series hai lần, đã qua đời hôm thứ Năm sau khi nhập viện vì căn bệnh mà gia đình anh gọi là “căn bệnh nặng”. He was 41.
"We are devastated to announce the sudden and tragic passing of Kyle Busch," his family, NASCAR and Richard Childress Racing said in a joint statement. "Our entire NASCAR family is heartbroken by the loss of Kyle Busch.
A future Hall of Famer, Kyle was a rare talent, one who comes along once in a generation." Busch, originally from Las Vegas, holds the record for most wins in the top three NASCAR divisions, and won Cup Series championships in 2015 and 2019.
He was in his fourth season at Richard Childress Racing after winning titles with Joe Gibbs Racing. According to Richard Childress Racing , Busch has 63 wins in the NASCAR Cup Series and held an all-time NASCAR record with 19 consecutive seasons with a victory from 2004 to 2023.
"Throughout a career that spanned more than two decades, Kyle set records in national series wins, won championships at NASCAR's highest level and fostered the next generation of drivers as an owner in the Truck Series," the statement said.
“Sự hóm hỉnh sắc sảo và tinh thần cạnh tranh của anh ấy đã khơi dậy một mối liên hệ cảm xúc sâu sắc.” ction with race fans of every age, creating the proud and loyal 'Rowdy Nation.'" The news comes 11 days after Busch radioed into his crew near the end of a Cup Series race at Watkins Glen asking a doctor to give him a "shot" after he finished the race.
According to the TV broadcast, Busch had been struggling with a sinus cold that was exacerbated by the intense G-forces and elevation changes at the New York road course. Busch competed at Dover in Delaware last weekend and won the Trucks Series race for Richard Childress Racing.
He finished 17th at the NASCAR All-Star race. NASCAR legend Jimmie Johnson, a former teammate of Busch, expressed shock and sadness at the sudden loss.
"I'm kinda lost for words at this moment, but we're gonna miss you, buddy. Gone too soon to say the least," Johnson told "CBS Mornings" on Friday.
He said described Busch as "just that spirited, ruthless competitor on track. Và tôi sử dụng sự tàn nhẫn theo cách tốt nhất có thể.
If you took an inch, he was going to take two," Johnson said. "And there was an amount of respect on the track that you just showed him, as a result.
Đồng thời, [anh ấy] sẽ đua với bạn thật chăm chỉ và thật sạch sẽ, và chỉ là một đối thủ đáng kinh ngạc. " Tay đua NASCAR và đồng đội cũ Denny Hamlin đăng trên mạng xã hội: "Hoàn toàn không thể hiểu được tin tức này.
Chúng ta chỉ cần nghĩ đến gia đình anh ấy trong thời gian này. Chúng tôi yêu bạn KB." "Thật sốc.
Very hard to process," veteran NASCAR driver Brad Keselowski posted on social media.
A polarizing figure known as "Rowdy" and "Wild Thing" for his post-race fights, regular feuds with other drivers and sometimes outlandish behavior, the multi-talented Busch stormed on the Cup Series scene in 2005 by winning Rookie of the Year.
From Las Vegas, Busch experienced unrivaled success across NASCAR's three national series winning a combined 234 Cup, O'Reilly Auto Parts and Trucks Series races. Along with his 63 Cup victories, he had 102 O'Reilly Auto Parts wins and 69 Trucks victories — both records.
Busch is the younger brother of Kurt Busch, a NASCAR Hall of Famer. Kyle Busch was said to be ready to race at NASCAR's top level at 16, but a cigarette settlement banned his debut and he had to wait until he was a 18.
At the time, Kurt Busch said, "If you think I'm good, wait until you see my brother." Busch is survived by his wife, Samantha, and children Brexton and Lennix. © 2026 CBS Interac tive Inc.
