Absolutely worstcase scenario as far as wrecks go for driver safety. Upside down and impacted at speed directly above the drivers position. I fear the worst but hope for the best. Either way, his career is over as a Nascar driver.
ESPN app keeps chnging their photo for the lead story, this one is scarey as hell. Slamming down and being spun before the impact. No way to brace for those impacts.
Reports out there, unconfirmed, that he was resuscitated in the ambulance but incoherent, obviously if true. Fox Sports 2 is already airing the replay of the race, not sure how to take that.

I wonder what the hell that sounded like on the inside of that car? The guy went from winning the race to getting in the ultimate wreck.
I am amazed if the reports of Newman alert and talking/conversing with doctors and family are true. I hope the reports are indeed the truth, would be damn near a miracle if so
If will be interesting to hear what his injuries actually are . Along with his condition when removed from the car I have to believe although talking and alert he is in pretty bad shape Sent from my iPhone using Bowhunting.com Forums
Newman is one tough cookie! This picture of him with his girls is amazing considering the wreck he was in!
It is absolutely amazing to me that someone is able to survive a crash like that now a days with all the safety stuff that goes into those cars. That was rough to watch
I'm speechless actually Ryan Newman walked out of a hospital Wednesday just days after being injured in a serious crash at the Daytona 500.
Yup a miracle Makes me wonder about the reaction of Jeff Gordon and Ryan Blaney Also about the black Blinds used to block view of his removal from the car Sent from my iPhone using Bowhunting.com Forums
Another while still in the hospital. I must admit, I was completely wrong on the assessment. I truthfully thought that if he aurvived he would be paralyzed due to spinal compression or something. May also be wrong on stating his career was over.
I can't imagine that a jarring to his noggin like that won't show effects down the road. I certainly pray not but this will be a longer story than some may think. Just glad that he's alive and has a fighting g chance at a good life.
Heck the way he is progressing he may be in the car this Sunday Seriously though , I doubt he is For someone who was assumed to be dead he Jos one lucky man Sent from my iPhone using Bowhunting.com Forums
