The race at the Tricky Triangle was marred by chaos as Busch’s attempt to squeeze through the field ended in disaster. As the cars approached Turn 1, Busch found himself separated from the pack and held the apron on the inside. Unfortunately, LaJoie’s No. 7 car collided with him, sending Busch off the track and triggering a multi-car pileup.

Busch’s fans reacted with outrage on social media, condemning LaJoie and his team for their destructive actions. Some even suggested that the incident could lead to Busch’s retirement.
Kyle Busch just can’t catch a break this season. It seems like Busch climbing out of his race car and ending up with a DNF finish has become a regular sight for fans. Well, the race at Pocono was no different for him as he was involved in a big one on a late restart with 40 laps remaining in the race.
The long straightaways of the Tricky Triangle allow drivers to dive-bomb entering Turn 1. In an attempt to thread the needle, Busch separated himself from the field after the first clean launch and then held the apron on the inside. However, before he could take off and get back inside the field for the turn, he was tagged by Corey LaJoie’s No. 7 car, sending Rowdy flying off the track.
Before you know it, chaos is on the track as Busch collects multiple race cars alongside him. LaJoie looks to get revenge on Rowdy before hitting the rear bumper of the No. 8 RCR car, causing a big crash.
