Kyle Busch Honored on Lap 18 of Indy 500 in Video

NASCAR driver Kyle Busch, who tragically passed away last Thursday, was honored on the 18th lap of Sunday's Indy 500.

Per Michael Marot of the Associated Press, the 41-year-old received tributes before and during the Indy 500 with his former car numbers (No. 8 and No. 18) at the forefront. Some examples are below.

Busch died after severe pneumonia progressed into sepsis, which caused "rapid and overwhelming associated complications," according to a statement released by the Busch family.

He is a two-time NASCAR Cup Series champion (2015, 2019) and won a record 234 NASCAR national series race wins over the Cup Series, O'Reilly Series and Truck Series.
