Update on NHRA legend John Force

Rod Mullins joins the show to update us on the status of NHRA legend John Force, who was seriously injured in a fiery crash in Richmond several days ago.
The show then switches gears to break down Joey Logano’s five-OT win in Nashville, which came down to fuel strategy amid the craziness of the final 31 laps.
Also getting our attention: what really happened between Aric Almirola and Bubba Wallace?

Good news! Thanks for the update! My best to John and his family!

Thanks for the update. This is encouraging news. And thanks for giving the specifics as to what the medical staff were likely doing to gingerly get his health back to some sense of stability. I forgot that for an injury this serious, medical personnel have to go though some intricate procedures. Pretty intense stuff.

You can't keep John down. We all know he needs to rest. Take it easy John. You are a Force to be reckoned with. We love you. We are praying for you buddy.

This might be a sign that at 75 years old it might be time to walk away

[@3rdandlong]

Yeah, I was saying (speculating) the same thing on another video last week. You just have to assume that at some point when he recovers, or improves to the point of leaving the hospital, the doctors and family are going to tell him you can't do this any more. He may not survive the next one. And I don't think the rest of the team will let him have the car keys anyway. Prock has them now.

His narcissism won’t let him quit racing, now his poor family may have to deal him full time...he is an energy vampire, very exhausting! I hope Ashley or Courtney don’t have to step into the driver’s seat, they have children to think about, something their dad never did!

[@3rdandlong]

@@trailerparkcryptoking5213 Don't forget stubborn. At his age, stubbornness sets in. You become set in your ways and hate change. And where is Courtney anyway? Have not seen her racing?

[@brucybabyy7355]

Assuming he can walk...

[@3rdandlong]

@@brucybabyy7355 Well if he's having neuro-logical issues, that can screw up a lot of other functions including balance and speaking simple sentences. Let's hope he's not confined to a wheelchair when all is said and done.

[@lonewolvesonwheels]

Seems like they are holding him against his will.He was trying to sit up right after the crash and they pushed him down.Something is really weird

[@user-kt1re3jv1u]

What caused the engine to explode on the John Force car.

[@MegaRussell12]

Nitro….. looked like he had a cylinder not firing, was a close race so he stayed in the throttle, with how much nitro that runs through those engines, if it’s missing and not burning it, it’s very easy for the nitro to hydro lock the cylinder, and with all that power, the engine just tears itself apart.

Time to retire the gloves,next time may not be lucky. Being a team owner you can still be in limelight. Don Schumacher did it and was highly successful.

[@clgdswr]

A 35 minute update? Someone likes to hear themselves talk, not even going to watch

[@timkis64]

john has allready set records that may NEVER be broken, perhaps he should retire & enjoy the fruits of his lifetime of labor.its ILLOGICAL to work your whole life when you dont NEED to.

[@thomasreyes2857]

For all of you people out there thinking he's going to make 100% come back it's not going to happen. Anyone that's had their eyes closed for a week is in big trouble he will never be the same mentally😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@thomasreyes2857]

What people need to realize when you don't give your life to our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ this is what happens. He gives everyone a chance and gives them a hint and if you don't take it this is what happens. It's better to have gold and silver in the heart with our Lord and savior than gold and silver in the hand😂😂😂😂😂😂
