NASCAR Driver Stewart Friesen Injured in Fiery Dirt Track Crash in Quebec

NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series driver Stewart Friesen suffered serious injuries in a fiery crash during a Super DIRTcar Series race at Autodrome Drummond in Quebec, Canada. Friesen's car hit the outside wall, went airborne, flipped multiple times, caught fire, and was struck by another car upon landing. He was alert and communicating with safety officials before being transported to a hospital, where scans showed no head, neck, or spine injuries, but revealed an unstable/open-book pelvic fracture with a large hematoma and a fractured right leg. Both injuries require surgery, and Friesen was transferred to a larger hospital for the procedures. Friesen, 42, has four NASCAR Truck Series wins this season and is locked into the playoffs, but these injuries likely end his racing season. His wife Jessica provided updates emphasizing his stable condition and ongoing pain, while his racing team has yet to comment on his future participation.
