Kurt Busch will be replaced by Ty Gibbs in the 23XI Racing Toyota after Busch was unable to run in the NASCAR race at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway due to concussion-like symptoms.
His accident raised the issue of whether there were any unresolved issues with the Next Gen car. Even even one injury may not always signal a problem, it does warrant further study.
He also doesn’t have a medical clearance to compete this weekend at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway Road Course.

Kurt Busch missed the Indianapolis race due to a concussion he sustained in a crash
After colliding with a barrier during qualifying at Pocono Raceway last weekend, Kurt Busch displayed signs of a concussion. He has not received permission to compete this weekend at Indianapolis Motor Speedway.
Due to a Pocono injury that caused him to miss many races, NASCAR gave him a medical waiver that will still allow him to enter the playoffs. Busch qualified for the playoffs with his victory in Kansas in May. He had one victory, five top-five finishes, and eight top-10 finishes before to last weekend.
Kurt’s health is our top priority, and we wish him the best as he prepares to return, according to the team lead by Michael Jordan and Denny Hamlin.
Busch is participating in his 22nd consecutive Cup season. He thanked Gibbs for filling his seat once more and continued, “I am dedicated to focusing on my health and getting back on track and will continue to work closely with NASCAR’s medical staff and my personal team of specialists.”
Update on Kurt Busch’s Health: When Will He Resurface?

One admirer went on to say, “Kurt should get better soon, I hope. This season has seen some extremely harsh blows, so I’m delighted this one was taken seriously.”
Kurt will be disappointed because we had a blast yesterday in the media centre. A supporter said, “It will be interesting to see how Ty does.”
