US President Donald Trump on Monday night tweeted two videos showing the horrific crash suffered by NASCAR driver Ryan Newman during the Daytona 500.

On the race's final lap Monday evening, Newman - who was leading the race at the time - was spun out, hitting the wall hard and then flipping into the air. He was seriously injured, but is not in a life threatening condition, NASCAR said in a statement.

Soon after the crash, Trump tweeted that he was "praying" for Newman, calling him a "great and brave" driver. Trump had been in attendance at the start of the Daytona 500 Sunday, but was not attending the actual race Monday.

After sending his prayers to Newman, the president went on to retweet NASCAR's statement about the crash, following up with a video and GIF of the crash occurring.

The video, from Fox's NASCAR network, showed the full final lap of the race, while the GIF, posted by Xfinity Racing, showed the moment Newman's horrible crash happened.

Xfinity's GIF was accompanied by the caption: "You didn't think we were getting through this without the Big One, right?" The phrase "Big One" is generally used to describe any NASCAR crash involving more than five cars.

The race was ultimately won by Denny Hamlin, who claimed his third Daytona 500 victory, becoming the first leader of the 2020 NASCAR Cup Series.

"Number one, we're praying for Ryan," Hamlin said on Fox after the race, as Business Insider's Cork Gaines reported.

"The finish, the history, that's all great. One day it will all sink in. But right now all I'm thinking about is Ryan Newman," he said later on ESPN.
