Q. busch driver injured horseback riding
A. Earlier this week, Mexico City native Michel Jourdain, Jr., who will attempt to qualify for his 21st career NASCAR Busch Series race this weekend in Mexico in ppc Racing's #15 Ford Fusion, was thrown from a horse during a photo shoot.
Jourdain: "It was a photo shoot for the Mexican newspaper Record. They wanted all of the drivers on these horses, and when I got on the horse, the saddle was loose and moved. I think it hurt the horse, he went crazy and he threw me into a big pole.
It bruised my left leg, but it doesn't hurt me in the car. I left foot brake, but it was no problem while I was in the car."
