Now they will all be bitching about him racing other than NASCAR just like Chase getting hurt snowboarding.
Alex Bowman will miss Sunday’s NASCAR Cup Series race at Dover Motor Speedway because of a fractured vertebra, Hendrick Motorsports announced Wednesday.
According to the team’s release, Bowman suffered the injury in an accident Tuesday evening while competing in a sprint car event at 34 Raceway in West Burlington, Iowa. Bowman, 30, was treated locally last night and evaluated again this morning in Charlotte, North Carolina. Bowman is expected to miss 3-4 weeks.
“We’re relieved Alex is home, in good spirits and getting world-class treatment,” said Rick Hendrick, owner of Hendrick Motorsports. “Giving him ample time and the foremost resources to heal is our top priority. He’s having a tremendous season, and the No. 48 is at the top of its game. We know what Josh is capable of in the race car and that Blake (Harris, crew chief) and the team will continue operating at a high level until Alex is ready to return. He has our full, unequivocal support.”
Josh Berry will fill in for Bowman in the No. 48 Chevrolet during his absence.
Hate he got hurt and will be out a couple races, I thought I read 4 somewhere yesterday but can't remember. Read it was a compound fracture, what limb? Leg, Arm? These guys are racers and most all of them run some form of racing other than Cup races throughout the year. It's no difference than a CUP driver running the Trucks or Xfinity Series, same thing can happen and it's not their primary division. Hope he heals quickly and know Josh will be a great filling for hie while he's out. My "2022" saying is: "Be Blessed each day we are given, tomorrow isn't promised" **Praying daily for all my Posse family here**
