Update from Daytona: Grandstands now cleared of injured people. Five fans were removed on backboards that I saw, maybe more.

Watching the replay again it looked the wheel didn't have a lot of speed on it when it did go into the stands so that's certainly a good thing.

NASCAR official suggests many reports floating around but all of them without foundation. A further update will follow at an undetermined time.

"No timetable" for updates from NASCAR. All their focus is on the treatment of the people injured.

Amateur angle of the wreck from pit road, looks eerily similar to Geoff Bodine's truck crash in 2000.

Warning: Possible serious injuries to fans.
Spoiler:


Edit: Didn't realize someone else posted this already. My bad.
