Kyle Busch, the legendary two-time Nascar Cup Series champion, has died at the age of 41. His death was confirmed on Thursday after his family had announced earlier in the day that Busch had been hospitalized after suffering from a “severe illness” and would miss the Coca-Cola 600. No cause of death was given.
“We are devastated to announce the sudden and tragic passing of Kyle Busch,” the Busch Family, Richard Childress Racing, and Nascar 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 holds the record for most wins across the top three Nascar divisions. He won Cup Series championships in 2015 and 2019 and was in his fourth season at Richard Childress Racing. Throughout his career, he scored 234 Nascar national series races — the most of any driver in history.
