Kyle Busch has surgery on his left foot
Kyle Busch had his second surgery on Wednesday.
Joe Gibbs Racing announced that Busch had what it termed successful surgery on his fractured left foot. The surgery happened after Busch was transferred back to North Carolina from Daytona Beach, where he had surgery on the broken leg he sustained in the Xfinity Series crash Saturday at Daytona International Speedway.
No timetable has been given on Busch's absence from NASCAR, but it's likely it'll be a lengthy one; long enough to prevent Busch from being eligible to receive a NASCAR waiver to make the Chase. Unless the rules change, drivers have to be in the top 30 of the points standings to make the Chase.
Busch will be replaced in the Cup Series for the foreseeable future by David Ragan, who will be replaced in his No. 34 Front Row Motorsports car by Joe Nemechek in Atlanta. Erik Jones, who drives for Busch's Camping World Truck Series team, will drive Busch's Xfinity Series car at Atlanta.
