NASCAR champ Kyle Busch dies at 41 after bout with severe illness

Kyle Busch, a two-time NASCAR Cup Series champion considered one of the best drivers of all time, died Thursday after a bout with a severe illness. He was 41.

The Busch family, Richard Childress Racing and NASCAR confirmed his death hours after announcing that Busch had been hospitalized this week and would miss Sunday's Coca-Cola 600 at Charlotte Motor Speedway. No further details, including the type of illness and location of the hospital, were provided.

"Our entire NASCAR family is heartbroken by the loss of Kyle Busch," the joint statement said. "A future Hall of Famer, Kyle was a rare talent, one who comes along once in a generation. He was fierce, he was passionate, he was immensely skilled and he cared deeply about the sport and fans.

"Throughout a career that spanned more than two decades, Kyle set records in national series wins, won championships at NASCAR's highest level and fostered the next generation of drivers as an owner in the Truck Series. His sharp wit and competitive spirit sparked a deep emotional connection with race fans of every age, creating the proud and loyal ‘Rowdy Nation.'"

"NASCAR lost a giant of the sport today, far too soon."

Busch is survived by his wife Samantha, 11-year-old son Brexton and 4-year-old daughter Lennix. He was also the younger brother of NASCAR Hall of Famer Kurt Busch, 47.

When the NASCAR Cup Series came to Watkins Glen, N.Y. earlier this month, Busch told his team over the radio that he was "gonna need a shot" and later told The Athletic he had not fully gotten over what was ailing him.

"You can kind of hear it -- I'm still not great," Busch said. "The cough was pretty substantial last week."

Busch accrued 232 wins across NASCAR's top three series: 63 in the Cup Series, 102 in the O'Reilly Auto Parts Series and 69 in the Craftsman Truck Series. He won the trucks race at Dover on Friday, six days before his death.

The Las Vegas native was the NASCAR Cup Series champion in 2015 and 2019. He never won the Daytona 500 but claimed the pole for the first time this year before finishing 15th.

Among Busch's big wins were the 2008 Southern 500, the 2015 and 2016 Brickyard 400 and 2019 Coca-Cola 600.

In a statement earlier in the day, Richard Childress Racing asked for prayers for Busch and his family and "he and his family have the full resources of RCR behind them."

They also tapped Austin Hill to take over for Busch in the No. 8 Chevrolet for the Coca-Cola 600, one of NASCAR's crown jewel events.

PEOPLE spoke exclusively to Big Sean at Live Nation’s Mental Health Awareness Month series for Mindful Nation’s “Music, Mindset & Meaning: A Conversation with Big Sean and Maverick Carter”

• Big Sean’s bestselling book, Go Higher: Five Practices for Purpose, Success, and Inner Peace, is out now

Big Seanis all about spreading positivity.

PEOPLE spoke to the rapper andGo Higherbestselling author, 38, at the Mindful Nation's Mental Health Awareness Month event held at Live Nation’s Beverly Hills headquarters on Wednesday, May 20 where he opened up about uplifting a fellow artist during a surprise Coachella performance late last month.

During the event, which featured a conversation moderated by SpringHill CEOMaverick Carter, the "Mercy" rapper recalled the viral speech he made toJustin Bieberin front of thousands of fans at Coachella Weekend 2.

"He's somebody who has given his whole life to the music, and has grown up in a public eye and has just gone through the ups and downs and been taking advantage of a lot, I feel like, from a lot of people and by any means not a perfect man and he knows that and he's been learning with us all," Sean, full name Sean Anderson, told PEOPLE of his "As Long as You Love Me" collaborator.

The pair have been friends since 2011, and Sean went viral forpraising Bieber’s resilienceduring their Coachella set, telling him in a heartfelt speech, "God has his hands on you."

"I didn't know that I was gonna say what I said on stage. I was just inspired," Sean told PEOPLE Wednesday.

The "Blessings" artist also shared how his prep for every performance keeps him grounded.

"Before I go on stage, I always pray for God to speak through me," he told PEOPLE. "I wake up, I do a morning meditation, I do a journal. I always try and keep myself open to the word of God or the angels around me, because I'm blind behind the miracles I’ve seen and I know that there's like angels watching over, not just me, over so many of us. So I just went with it."

While his words may have moved many, Sean admitted he didn’t actually remember much of it.

"When I got offstage and people were like, ‘What you said was so ... ‘ And I'm like, ‘Damn, what did I say?’ I had to go back and listen, but he and his wife were so sweet," the Grammy nominee said of the Canadian superstar and his wifeHailey Bieber, 29.

"They both hit me after. I was kicking with them after, but they hit me days later, like, ‘What you said — we’re still on a high off of it and still appreciated and so great what you said.’ And Justin was like, ‘Man, you drop big bars, you drop some bars, man.’ I'm like, I didn't even really — it wasn't my intention," Sean told PEOPLE of the impromptu moment.

Part of the Mindful Nation event featured a book signing from Sean’s 2025 release,Go Higher: Five Practices for Purpose, Success, and Inner Peace.

While there, the "Bounce Back" rapper said outside of journaling, meditation and even watching anime, there’s one thing he doesn’t see himself doing again to find inner peace.

"I don't go skydiving. I did, but it was a little much," he joked. "When I was in the air, I'm like, I don't need to do this again."
