Kurt Busch reinstated by NASCAR

...granted Chase waiver.

Now, let's hope we see a calmer, more restrained, and mature Kurt Busch.


Kurt Busch will return to competition at Phoenix International Raceway this weekend.

Busch, who has served a suspension from the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series since Feb. 20, will rejoin the No. 41 Stewart-Haas Racing team, effective immediately. He has also been granted a waiver, remaining he remains eligible for the Chase should he meet the qualifications.
NASCAR statement

"As we stated last week, the elimination of the possibility of criminal charges removed a significant impediment to Kurt Busch’s return to full status as a NASCAR member,” said Steve O’Donnell, NASCAR Executive Vice President and Chief Racing Development Officer. “We therefore have decided to move him to indefinite probation and waive the Chase requirement. He has fully complied with our reinstatement program during his suspension and the health care expert who conducted his evaluation recommended his immediate return."

"He is eligible to return to NASCAR racing under indefinite probation subject to additional mandatory requirements that include but are not limited to participation in a treatment program and full compliance with any judicial requirements placed upon him."

“We have made it very clear to Kurt Busch our expectations for him moving forward, which includes participation in a treatment program and full compliance with all judicial requirements as a result of his off-track behavior.”

"Kurt Busch now will undergo additional steps to address the behavior for which he was penalized"

There are 2 sides to every story and the truth lies in the middle.

I'm not a fan of his but he should be able to race...unless convicted of something.

There was really no other decision after no criminal charges were filed.
