Thankfully, just like Bowyer's flip in 2014, it landed on the wheels right away. God bless these drivers and all the safety equipment in these cars. He walked away.

That flip I don't think Nascar can ever fix, he wouldn't have flipped if Kurt Busch and Matt Dibenedetto (Who by the way was an awesome pusher) hadn't have pitched him up into the air, the roof flaps help keep the car on the ground if a car spins by themselves like Paul Menard 2018 Daytona, but if they get pitched up just a tad by another car they will flip and nascar can't do anything about that, so please don't alter this package Nascar this was an awesome race.
