One day after he used the R-word during a post-race interview with NBC Sports, NASCAR driver Kyle Busch will be required to undergo sensitivity training. Busch used the slur while complaining about a passing maneuver executed by Brad Keselowski in Sunday's Cup series race at Martinsville Speedway.
"It's frickin' r-------, man, so stupid," Busch said. "I don't understand these guys. I should beat the s--- out of him right now, is what I should do, but that doesn't do me any good either."
Sunday's result eliminated Busch from postseason contention. NASCAR said Busch's sensitivity training comes as a result of violating the league's conduct guidelines, per Alan Cavanna. On Sunday, a NASCAR spokesperson said the league was considering issuing a fine on Busch, though Monday's announcement made no mention of one.
