Even if I have some hard feelings about how y’all treated your past drivers (their names aren’t important right now), I’m going to put that aside and say I hope Newman is ok. I don’t feel it’s right of me to act like nothing happened

Robbed again. Unbelievable. Way to go guys. Ryan & Chris were awesome today.
Hope Ryan is okay. Lousy ending. Should have been ours. That was the absolute worst case scenario.

Ahead of the 2020 Daytona 500, Newman opened up about the event to NASCAR.com about the recent "teaming" of Roush Fenway Racing and Koch Industries, who would announced as Newman's primary partner during the 62nd annual Daytona 500.

"We are looking forward to teaming up with Koch Industries and having them on the car for one of the most celebrated races of the season," Newman said, noting that he had previously won the Daytona 500, back in 2008. "Winning the 500 is one of the biggest accomplishments of my racing career. We have really fast superspeedway cars at Roush Fenway and we'd like nothing better than to kick off our season by driving the Koch Industries Ford into Victory Lane at Daytona."

At this time, Newman is said to be in serious condition but not suffering any life-threatening injuries.
