## Summary

Frankie Muniz was released from hospital after crashing during practice for a Veterans Day race at Daytona International Speedway. He said he was a little sore and credited his Mustang with protecting him, but could not take part in the event.

The 40-year-old actor was practising for Ford Racing’s Proud to Honor event when his car hit a tyre barrier; safety crews cut him out and he was taken for medical checks, awake and alert. Muniz had been due to race for Team Air Force with Austin Cindric, but Ford development driver Jenson Altzman replaced him. The event brought together six teams representing branches of the US military to support service members and their families.
