John Force: Legend's Return to Racing Tracks

Legendary NHRA racer John Force is making waves after a severe crash that sent him to the hospital for a month. On June 23rd, Force's car engine exploded, causing a terrifying crash at over 487 km/h. Despite escaping the wreckage, he suffered major injuries, including a fractured sternum and head injuries. After intense care in various ICUs, Force is finally showing improvement and might be heading back to the tracks. His daughter, Kelly Crandall, recently shared that Force is doing outpatient therapy at home. There's a chance he could attend upcoming NHRA events in Las Vegas and Pomona to support his team. Force has been dealing with cognitive and behavioral symptoms from his traumatic brain injury (TBI), but he's pushing through with regular therapy. Force's team and fans are eagerly awaiting his return. Meanwhile, his replacement, Jack Beckman, has also faced health issues. Beckman, who has an impressive 35 national event wins, recently experienced vertigo and spent a night in the hospital. Despite the setbacks, both Force and Beckman are determined to bounce back. The world of drag racing is tough, but legends like John Force show us how to fight through adversity.
