In a green-white flag-checker overtime battle, Ryan Newman was sent into the wall as he tried to hold off Ryan Blaney, allowing Denny Hamlin to secure his second consecutive Daytona 500 victory. Newman's car flipped, slid across the finish line, and caught fire as a result of the crash.

I’m praying Ryan is ok. That was the scariest crash I’ve seen next to Bodines in 2000.
#prayfornewman
Joey G …….and hit upside down driver’s side at that. I’m pretty shook right now.
@T.Sewell yeahhh same bro, we’re all just praying for him and his family rn…
@KivaMarieTurbo1 He’s in serious condition but nothing life threatening.
@KivaMarieTurbo1 Hes not. He will be ok. Comfirmed
Hes in serious condition but nothing life threatning .. Im sure hes gonna miss some races but least hes ok .
I’ve never in my ten years of watching NASCAR have seen a crash that bad.
David Jessee…..David, if Dale was wearing the HAANS he would have survived that crash.
@T.Sewell the what ifs are endless ☹
@Anselmo Dinero ya but this explains 10 years
I mean Austin’s was worse
@jonah_tc2 it could have been worse but where newman was hit at makes the wreck worse I think did dillons look worse oh ya but because he went in the fence under side of the car first he was perfectly fine if he went in roof first well that’s a whole different story
One of the craziest finishes to a Daytona 500 ever
Lil Switch yes 100% awful, worst ending to a race
@KNP Ipod Being from Daytona, I have to agree.
Uhhh were you around in 2001
F
Michelle Johnson probably the second worst.
That was one of the worst wrecks I’ve ever seen in the NASCAR Cup Series. I’m praying for Ryan Newman. I hope he’s okay. #PrayForRyan
ULTRARAILER 29 ……I hate to say it. But this was far worse.
You’re right Dillon’s crash was bad, but he was able to get up on his own. Not the case this time.
This is pretty much a mix of Geoff Bodine’s Truck crash in 2000 and Dale Earnhardt in 1996
Not even close. No way. I hope Newman is Ok, and it sounds like he is, but that’s nowhere close to the worst ever.
just see Geoff bodines 2000 crash and that will be the scariest wreck you will ever see
Hope he’s ok man, damn, what are the odds flipping spinning upside down and he ends up window net facing traffic to get clobbered. These are the safest cars in motorsports and I’ll stand by those words, but my goodness this is a huge test. You can’t anticipate every possible angle of every impact. Terrible end to a great race. #StayStrongNewman
@GC It really doesn’t matter which are the safest (safest are WRC, look at Tänak crash at Monte Carlo), but the fact that safety in all of the motorsport keeps improving
@daniel Stark there has been one death in F1 since 1994… Hubert was in Formula 2
daniel Stark You mean IndyCar
A1tze still more then nascar
@daniel Stark Since Senna’s death there has been 2 deaths in Nascar, 1 in F1
I remember back in 2015 i saw A. Dillon’s crash and i was completely terrified to see the #3 to being reduced to almost nothing.
But then he got out and waved the crowd, i’d also like to believe Dale Sr was there with him and said to Dillon “this is not your time”.
Still hoping for good news about Ryan. Father of 2 kids.
“Newman is in serious condition, but his injuries are non-life threatening”
Thank god!
Still we don’t know how long it would be until Ryan Newman gives in from his injuries
@KivaMarieTurbo1 I wouldn’t be surprised if this is a career ender though I certainly hope it doesn’t come to that.

As in quits racing?
And Hamlin was celebrating. I hope he gets stage 4 Can cer.
Miraculous he survived this. The fact he wasn’t killed instantly by the blunt impact still astonishes me. Hope he makes a full recovery. Much respect to all the people who undertake such a dangerous profession for our enjoyment.
Gen 6 cars are very safe
MagicTank Gaming The fact he survived is definitely proof of that. Props to NASCAR for making huge strides in safety over the past decade. Makes me wonder if the stuff we have now could’ve saved Dale Earnhardt.
Rescue was a bit slow!
Congratulations to Denny Hamlin who is crowned this year’s Daytona 500 champion, but my thoughts and prayers go out to Ryan Newman along with his family and fans!!
Man, that was a brutal wreck… Glad to hear he’s alive. We came pretty damn close to having another 2001 Daytona 500…
But on the up side, this just further proves how safe these cars are. Say what you will about the on track racing and what not, but safety is critical above all else.
Regardless of how you feel about the package, the fact that these cars keep getting obliterated and people keep coming out without life threatening injuries is more important than going 200+
My God, it’s like Dale Sr. in 2001 all over again. Final lap at the Daytona 500 and everything goes wrong. So glad Ryan had a better outcome. Really heartlifting to hear his injuries are not life threatening.
I haven’t seen an accident this bad in this sport in years. I’ve been watching since 2003-ish and in that time most crazy accidents of this caliber had the drivers walk away. I’m just glad Newman is okay.
I’m so thankful Newman is okay. Anyways that was one of the best 500’s I have ever seen. Great finish!
That was crazy. Great race. Glad he’s going to be ok. Not a good way to start the season
This accident is a lesson for us. I’m honestly surprised, going 200 miles per hour and he survives that is an amazing thing. Hope Newman a speedy recovery
NASCAR provides an update on Ryan Newman, who is in serious but not life-threatening condition: https://youtu.be/h0aYknNRhk0
This is not an update..it’s just rehashing last nights announcement…NASCAR’s PR dept. needs an enema the size of Lake Lloyd.
What are his injuries? That’s all we’re asking while praying.
Will there be a radioactive from this race?
