He’s the most controversial driver on the NASCAR circuit at the moment, brashly outspoken and able to divide NASCAR fans that either love him or hate him. But Sunday at New Hampshire Motor Speedway, Kyle Busch did something that surprised many: He apologized.
Busch became the object of several drivers’ ire after triggering a multi-car crash on lap 175 of the Lenox Industrial Tools 301. As the field came to take the green flag after the seventh caution of the race, the No. 88 Chevy of Dale Earnhardt Jr. appeared to slow, suddenly causing the cars behind him to stack up.
It looked as though Busch got into the car of Martin Truex Jr., causing Truex to spin. The ensuing melee took out the cars of Jamie McMurray, Kevin Harvick, Jeff Burton, Casey Mears, David Reutimann, Brian Vickers, and David Ragan.
As the field circled under caution, Truex, out of his car at that point, walked towards Busch’s Toyota as it went by and motioned as if to throw his helmet at it. Truex didn’t, however, but his anger at Busch was evident.MORE-->>
