NASCAR driver Kyle Busch is hospitalized with a “severe illness” and will miss this weekend’s Coca-Cola 600 at Charlotte Motor Speedway, multiple outlets report. Busch, 41, is a two-time NASCAR Cup Series champion. According to statements attributed to his family, he is undergoing medical treatment and is not expected to participate in any activity connected to the event.

No outlet provides further medical details beyond the family’s characterization of his condition as severe.
