It's surreal to think Bryan Clauson is gone. He was one of the good ones. He was kind, funny, and a damn good driver. Heavy heart today.??

Again, my favorite Bryan Clauson stat:
He's the only driver to lead the Indy 500 and win a sprint car feature race on the same day.
EVER.— Jake Query (@jakequery) August 8, 2016
