Newgarden Wins Despite Injury

Josef Newgarden won the Bommarito Automotive Group 500 at World Wide Technology Raceway despite competing with a foot injury from his Indianapolis 500 crash.

Josef Newgarden came into World Wide Technology Raceway with a slight limp and a walking boot on his left foot, but walked out with hardware after winning the race on Sunday night. The Tennessee native continued to show signs of the battle scars suffered from his crash at the Indianapolis 500 just two weeks prior.

A week ago, Newgarden was using a single crutch to move around, demonstrating the severity of his injury. Despite these physical limitations, he managed to secure victory in the 500-mile event, showcasing his resilience and determination as a driver. librea.one
