NASCAR star brutally honest as DISASTROUS run continues

His luck has been down of late

NASCAR star Kyle Busch took to social media to offer a brutally honest assessment of yet another on-track incident during Sunday's Brickyard 400 at Indianapolis Motor Speedway.

In the closing laps of the race, Busch was running in fifth and looking good for a very strong finish - something desperately needed following his poor recent run.

However, things quickly went wrong for the No 8 Richard Childress Racing driver, who, with just three laps to go, collided with Joe Gibbs Racing's Denny Hamlin after coming up the inside of him and drifting up the track.

As a result, Busch slammed into the barrier, ending his race early to register his sixth DNF in eight races - a disastrous run.

Kyle Busch apologizes

"I'm really sorry to all my guys and RCR for crashing while trying to b aggressive and get them a top 5 finish.

"Ready for this two wk break. Really need it."

The race in Indianapolis was eventually won in overtime by Kyle Larson in his no 5 Hendrick Motorsports car.

The no 45 and 12 cars of Tyler Reddick and Ryan Blaney came home behind Larson in second and third respectively.
