Retired NASCAR driver Kurt Busch was arrested this week in Mooresville, North Carolina, after police pulled him over for allegedly driving 63 mph in a 45 mph zone.

Busch was then taken into custody for DWI, reckless driving and speeding.

Racer.com reported that officers said the 46-year-old displayed signs of intoxication with a “strong odor of alcohol coming from his breath” and “red glassy eyes.”

“I’m very disappointed in myself, and I apologize to my family, my racing family and to my fans,” the NASCAR champion said in a statement.

“I will work with the authorities to rectify the situation and work with the county to make it a safer place in the future.”

In 2022, he suffered a serious concussion during qualifying at Pocono Raceway.

The same year, he announced he would stop racing on a full-time basis in 2023.

Busch formally announced his retirement in August 2023.

Dillon won the race following a last-lap incident where he turned Joey Logano and then hooked Denny Hamlin to take the checkered flag and what he thought was an automatic playoff berth that goes with a regular-season win.

NASCAR will not strip Dillon of the win, but it won’t allow him to use the win for an automatic playoff berth.

Dillon was also docked 25 points in the standings and his spotter, Brandon Benesch, was suspended for three races.
