In NASCAR's summer Cup race at Daytona in 2023, Ryan Preece took a terrifying flip through the grass, luckily walking away from the airborne incident with only minor injuries. The sport — and Daytona International Speedway — reacted quickly, repaving the area of the backstretch leading into the turn officially known as Le Mans chicane, but still popularly called Bus Stop.
Since then, more changes have been made. The grass is gone and the curbing has been reshaped and raised, making for a tighter corner. And in the eyes of some drivers, the iconic corner at Daytona is a lot less fun now.
