Richard Childress Racing’s Kyle Busch is wearing an ace bandage-style wrap on his left wrist – nursing a sore wrist that he injured in an accident during the Brickyard 400 at Indianapolis Motor Speedway three weeks ago.
Although he said it was not broken and there hadn’t been any issues steering the car so far during practice and qualifying at Richmond, Busch conceded, “Without two weeks off, I would not have been able to race. I’m good.’’
Busch said there would not be a stand-by driver in the pits to relieve him at Richmond should the injury become too painful to drive.
“Grip it and rip it,’’ he said with a smile.
