The owner of a NASCAR team, Rick Hendrick, stated he would do whatever it would take to strengthen the Next Gen car’s safety as soon as feasible.

Alex Bowman, a racer for Hendrick in the NASCAR Cup Series, missed the race previous weekend in Texas after experiencing concussion-like symptoms as a result of a rear-impact collision. Bowman is the second racer in the series to miss a race this year.

Following a similar collision in qualifying at Pocono Raceway in July, Kurt Busch has been sidelined ever since.

Hendrick responded, “Absolutely. I mean, for sure. Our drivers are so important, we don’t want them hurt.,” when questioned if he as the owner would be fine to spend more money to improve the car’s safety features. 

“So, if it meant buying all new (rear) clips Monday morning, I’d do it. I’d be happy to do it. We want them safe. Be it like Alex, Kurt Busch, that’s hard. So I’m all for whatever it takes.

“I think the teams could fix it. If NASCAR wants to do it, I think everybody working together, we could do it in a hurry, test it, have it on the cars ASAP.”

Hendrick claimed that until the racer visited a doctor on Thursday, he had no information of Bowman’s possible concussion problem.

“After the race, he said he didn’t feel good. Then Monday morning he didn’t feel well. They started working with him Tuesday,” Hendrick said. “Wednesday was good. He felt much better. Then Thursday he backed up, he didn’t feel good, so he went to see the doctor.

“I think hopefully he’ll be back next week. I think he will. He’s feeling good today and did yesterday. I guess he’ll go back and get evaluated here mid-week.”
