Tony Stewart collected in another early crash during NASCAR truck race at Talladega Superspeedway
The crash ended the race for both drivers and triggered a red flag after Stewart Friesen’s flat tire sent nine trucks into the wall, officials said.
- On Friday, a massive multi-truck pileup halted the NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series race at Talladega Superspeedway on Lap 17, forcing a red flag that ended Stage 1 early.
- Friesen lost control of his Toyota in traffic near Turn 2, triggering a chain reaction that collected Tony Stewart and YouTube influencer Cleetus McFarland, who slammed into the outside wall.
- "I just saw the wreck and started slowing down heavily," said McFarland, while Stewart radioed his team that the impact knocked the wind out of him before his release from the infield care center.
- A rule adopted in August ended Stage 1 immediately because the caution fell inside the final 10 laps; crews cleared the track and the race resumed on FS1 for Stage 2.
- Kaden Honeycutt maintains a 43-point lead over Layne Riggs in the Chase standings heading into the final two races, intensifying the championship competition following the Talladega incident.
