Ryan Preece's crash Sunday was the latest in an uptick of cars flipping after wrecks and the second such incident for Preece in two years.

Ryan Preece has walked away after a spectacular crash during the closing laps of the 2025 Daytona 500, going airborne and flipping down the Daytona backstretch and up the banking in Turn 3. It all occurred after a multi-car crash that began when Christopher Bell got spun in front of traffic while racing for the win with four laps to go.

Ryan Preece is calling on NASCAR to do more to prevent cars from becoming airborne during superspeedway races.

Daytona 500, Ryan Preece was involved in one of the most terrifying moments of his career. After getting into a high-speed crash, his car soared through the air, terrifying both fans and fellow drivers.

But Preece in the No. 60 RFK Racing Ford suffered the worst of the wreck, first going airborne and landing on Erik Jones’ No. 43 Legacy Motor Club Toyota before being totally upside down on the track. Eventually, the car barrel-rolled up the track and landed on its wheels in Turn 3.

With four laps left, Preece turned upside-down and essentially did a wheelie in his No. 60 Ford. His car flipped onto its roof and turned back onto its tires before hitting the outside wall. Preece dropped his safety net to signal to crews he was OK. He finished 32nd.

Preece was referring to the wreck he endured on Sunday at Daytona International Speedway: the one where he was knocked in the side by an out-of-control Christopher Bell, into Erik Jones, and up into the air at 190-plus miles per hour — floating and flipping upside down until he crashed into the wall, almost into the fence.

"We know where there’s a problem, at superspeedways. … When it finally gets somebody, I don’t want it to be me."
