He will be Fine ...he is Rich !!!
It was a good run. Don't get killed between now and your retirement.
Overrated driver who lives on his dads name and legacy. Good riddance.
7:25 Yup. I bets he gonna get a condo in FL and play golfs everyday. Are you people really that dense? He is retiring from active racing. He owns cars, a team and businesses. It is so sad that most people think their definition of retiring applies to the 1%.
Are they still doing that nascar thing?
