Ryan Newman, Kurt Busch Involved in Multi-Car Crash at Daytona 500

The Daytona 500 got off to a rocky start on Sunday afternoon with 16 cars involved in a pileup after a crash in Lap 14.

A nudge from Joe Gibbs Racing's Christopher Bell pushed Stewart-Haas Racing's Aric Almirola out of line and into the middle of the track, sparking Sunday's pileup. Kurt Busch and Ryan Newman were involved in the 16-car pileup, as was Martin Truex Jr.

Newman was involved in a terrifying crash in last year's Daytona 500. His crashed into the wall and flipped over into the infield on the final lap, needing help exiting his car from crews near the finish line.
