NASCAR driver Ryan Preece released from hospital after terrifying crash

NASCAR driver Ryan Preece was discharged from the hospital on Sunday after his car rolled more than half a dozen times during a crash at Daytona International Speedway.

Preece, driver of the #41 RaceChoice.com Ford, and fellow Stewart-Haas Racing driver Chase Briscoe, driver of the #14 Magical Vacation Planner Ford, had an on-track incident on Saturday.

Video shows Preece’s car flip through the air before it landed. The car appeared to be on fire when it finally stopped rolling.

Preece was able to get out of the car by himself. He was brought to the Halifax Health Medical Center, where he stayed through the night, Stewart-Haas Racing said on social media Sunday. Preece was “awake, alert, mobile” and communicating with family and friends, the team said.
