    big hit, picked the rear of the car a few feet off the ground :eek:

    sounds like he's being held for observation so hopefully that's a good sign, but it certainly looked like he wasn't in control of the car post accident-hopefully not a concussion.

    +1, prayers indeed
    Was watching it live, man that was a nasty hit
    Danica's car destroyed and she was clearly shaken afterward
    Let's hope Aric is ok

    Aric Almirola wreck: Almirola suffered compression fracture in wreck

    Compression fracture in T5 vertebre, released from the hospital. Wow. I have to say, there's very little I agree with NASCAR on, but their continuous dedication to the improvement to the safety of the cars and tracks is unsurpassed. Kudos to them. I thought it would end up much worse.

    I had fracure to 4 + 5 in combat - lots of pain over the years but after surgeries rarely have pain so there is hope

    Crazy that these guys can still race after experiencing things like that.
