Alex Bowman had a fracture and out for 3-4 week.
According to a sprint car incident on Tuesday night that fractured Alex Bowman’s spine, he will be out for three to four weeks. Hendrick Motorsports announced it on Wednesday.
While Bowman rests, Josh Berry will operate the No. 48.
“We’re relieved Alex is home, in good spirits and getting world-class treatment.”
“Giving him ample time and the foremost resources to heal is our top priority.” He’s having a tremendous season, and the No. 48 is at the top of its game. We know what Josh is capable of in the race car and that Blake (Harris, crew chief) and the team will continue operating at a high level until Alex is ready to return. “He has our full, unequivocal support.”
