Missed
Fans said that they are going to miss seeing Newman at this weekend's race. They are particularly eager for him to return to the sport after the triumphant video of him leaving the hospital, but some are admitting that it is reasonable to take some time away.
'Can't Wait'
Some fans are focusing on the positive, remaking on how eager they are to cheer Newman on when he eventually gets back. Whether it takes another week or another month, his fans said that they will be waiting for him.
'Speedy Recovery'
Fans sent thoughts and prayers to Newman and his family before, and they continue to do so now. Many wished the racecar driver a speedy recovery.
Medical Specifics
Fans discussed the specifics of Newman's injury among themselves, trying to infer some information about how long he might be away or how badly he might have been hurt. There was no clear consensus on when he might be back, though some on Twitter had their own experiences with similar injuries.
'Heal 100%'
There were fan who thought that the longer Newman was away from NASCAR, the better, as it meant he would recovery more fully. They hoped the 42-year-old would be able to stay in the race for years to come, and they said that a slow and patient recovery was key.
Close Calls
While Newman's head injury is no small thing, some remarked on the other hazards he narrowly avoided. Between the impact of his crash, the tumbling through the air and the flames on his engine, Newman came out relatively well from his Daytona 500 disaster.
Fill-in
Finally, many fans looked at the glass as half-full when they heard Newman would be off this weekend, as it meant Ross Chastain would be allowed to race in his place. Fans prepared to cheer on the driver who will be behind the wheel of the Roush Fenway No. 6 Ford.
