NASCAR had to red flag Sunday’s NASCAR Cup Series race at Las Vegas Motor Speedway for wall repair after Chris Buescher crashed in Turn 1 due to his right front wheel coming off. Buescher’s RFK Racing Ford Mustang Dark Horse hit the wall on lap 27. The wheel became loose after a pit stop under caution on lap 10, with the lug nut failing to stay tight. Following the restart on lap 16, the loose nut caused the wheel to detach as Buescher entered the corner, resulting in the crash. Buescher was uninjured but expressed disappointment, stating that the incident was unexpected and damaging to their performance. Despite the setback, Buescher remains optimistic about future races and is focused on bouncing back from this unfortunate event.
