Zilisch sustained the injury after winning the Mission 200 at the Glen NASCAR Xfinity Series race. He fell from his racecar after exiting it.
Connor Zilisch qualified 25th of 40 NASCAR Cup Series entered at Watkins Glen. It was set to be his fourth start of the 2025 NASCAR Cup Series season.
Thank you everybody for reaching out today. I’m out of the hospital and getting better already. Thankfully, CT scans for my head are clear, I just have a broken collarbone. Thankful for all the medics for quick attention and grateful it wasn’t any worse.❤️
