Ryan Newman relives his fateful, scary day at 2020 Daytona 500 with Tom Rinaldi | NASCAR ON FOX

What did you think about Ryan Newman's crash?

[@TimothyFitch]

that technology is crazy

[@tylercole273]

i legit thought he died or had really bad injuries ngl

[@SyffRacing]

I was standing there in disbelief, I thought he had died...

2020 was pretty brutal, 2021 was ouch

[@davidprice8371]

Stop milking it

[@pazzarelli26]

When his dad broke down and Ryan as well I teared up, I’m really glad he survived, the story of his oldest telling him to stay alive really grips your heart ❤️

[@alka-seltzermanager8511]

Great father & son relationship

[@blackhawkrescue5fromroblox151]

Same

[@FathomMane]

This whole thing almost had me crying im glad he is ok

[@zottffss]

Ryan has been quite the unluckiest, luckiest driver in NASCAR I think.

[@CW_13sv]

Yep not lucky to win but lucky to survive

[@pullilili5845]

yeah

[@edwardrodriguez9326]

Dude for real

[@thomasriggins7406]

Agreed lucky to survive but unlucky at the same time he shouda won 5 restrictor plate races within the past 10 years

[@Fins_Productions24]

He finished upside down AND GOT FREAKIN TOP 10 HOW

[@SuperNASCARrocks]

I can’t imagine the emotions going through Ryan’s mind. To return to Daytona after a harrowing crash like that and race again is one of the greatest comeback stories ever.

Thank god he’s still around man. After Dale us as fans can’t do that anymore

[@frankcastle1216]

I think God and Dale Earnhardt sent him back to be with his daughters.

[@iankhan4614]

​@@frankcastle1216 there's nothing that you can do as a driver. You land upside down after wrecking, and then another car hits you on the drivers door and lifts you up off the ground. The top of the roll cage, where your head is located.

[@decembergal]

The part that gave me the chills was the fluid coming out of the car so close to the flames. So glad he was able to walk out of the hospital a few days later. 👍🏻🙏🏻

[@PaulBP7]

Newman did not deserve to crash that night. That Daytona win should have been his. Glad and relieved to hear your recovery went well, and we're still rooting for you buddy!

[@RacerJL73]

I agree

[@medilyesoudhini7411]

This and Romain Grosjean's survival from his crash is a testament to how safe motorsport has become nowadays

[@THEBLACKVAIL-777]

Yes u are right

[@ThePerpetualStudent]

YES!!! such a heavy crash, both of them.

[@three4days]

No it isn’t. It is but it isn’t. Ryan said it best himself with how things went he shouldn’t be here. This wasn’t the safety of the car that has him hear today it’s the man upstairs making sure a father can be there to father his kids. 🙏🙏 cars are definitely safer now I do agree but Ryan’s statement says that it wasn’t the safety precautions that day.

[@samanthasorber8631]

I feel so bad aww thats so adorable i just thought that was cute of his oldest daugther for saying that im so sorry newman glad your okay such a heart touching story ❤

[@jennifer.martin.48]

I was at this race, it was so scary to see in person and even crazier seeing it play later in slow motion. It’s a miracle that he survived and able to walk out a few days later.

[@NimrodWarrior]

One of the only drivers I still root for. Thank God he’s still around for his family and all his fans. Watching that live, I was so afraid he had died … hadn’t been that afraid after a crash since Dale in ‘96 at Talladega.

[@GARails]

“I’m just here so I don’t get fined” you gotta love that tho lmao

[@JLewisRacing927]

In the moment, I thought the he was gone. Choked up and all, so glad he survived and was minimally injured considering the impact.

[@iceeblueburst03]

Sucks to see Ryan Newman getting involved in the wreck at the 2021 Daytona 500.

[@williammills8953]

I believe Newman is done. He doesn't have the heart and mindset to win anymore.

[@iceeblueburst03]

Yeah, I know.

[@driftin6963]

@@williammills8953 I believe he has the Heart definitly, just like every driver before him and during his time in nascar there comes a time when drivers "Longer outlook on Life" comes into play and they are more cautious and safer- therefore aren't as competitive as someone New coming into the sport.........Happened with Jeff gordon, Mark Martin,Rusty wallace, ernie Irvan--drivers just lose there "come get some" attitude

[@mikeyoungblood1642]

@@williammills8953 Well he is alive so that’s all that matters

[@iankhan4614]

It's was tough to see him crash out in this years Daytona 500, but it's much better than last years result. This year, he was ok. He more grateful 🙏 to survive than to think about winning again.

[@mykoolson6024]

I almost cried watching this live. He's very lucky to make it out of that car alive

[@arthurcooperman3106]

I've never been a big Nascar fan, I played a few Nascar games and watched some races. I'm from NYC so there isn't too much Nascar or racing interest here. It just so happened that me and my dad were watching this race. My dad had watched the 2001 Daytona 500 when Earnhardt Sr suffered his fatal crash only a year before I was born. When we saw this crash I was just in shock and my dad immediately thought he wasn't going to make it. Watching this 5 minute video made me tear up. Seeing a crash like that and then watching him walk out of the hospital only two days later. It's a miracle.

[@ncrg_official]

Just even watching it on TV is just awful. we all know Newman has been in awful wrecks and one at Daytona also and going on his roof. But the one in 2020 is just the one you would think nobody would survived. So glad Newman survived it!

[@southeastcupseries]

My mom was so shook up she said if he died I wasn’t allowed to watch NASCAR again. NASCAR though is a family sport and I couldn’t abandon this family. Newman has since become one of my favorite drivers.

[@stephaniecunningham4558]

Watching this replay always gives me chills. And to sit here and think that this man is without a ride for 2022. He still has so much more grit and determination to race and win. Wish someone would give him another chance. The don’t call him the Rocketman for nothing. I still believe he can drive and be competitive, and most of all, WIN! Best of luck Ryan! Hope you get the chance to drive full time again. 🏁🏆💙 Forever a fan!

[@alka-seltzermanager8511]

Ryan Newman is blessed to be alive

[@jonkozlowski2476]

Not gonna lie I had flash backs of the 2001 Daytona 500 after we lost Dale Sr. When this crash happened..thank God Ryan was able to walk away from this.

Here 4 years after the crash. I remember thinking, "Oh, this might be February 2001 all over again.."

god, looking at this view at 0:51 makes the crash even scarier.

Dude was so grateful that he walked out the hospital with both his daughters in hand with only socks on. Keep rockin it steady Ryan.

I didn't watch the crash live in 2020, but, seeing it now, it has to be an act of God that Newman is still with us, let alone no broken bones.

I think we can all agree from here on out that whatever happens, wherever he finishes in a race, Ryan Newman is the biggest winner of them all.

With how crushed the roof was, it’s a miracle made it out. I guess that’s a testament to how much more serious vehicle safety is regarded. I’m glad he’s still around to race.

He took that impact by the oncoming car in the driver's side door at 200 mph. That was the worst part of the wreck.
