Here's another angle of the crash:

Truex was nearing his 20th stage win of the year, but the crash forced him to head to pit road.

Instead, Kyle Busch won the stage, and he has the second most stage wins this season behind Truex.

The wreck could have a major impact on the outcome of the race, especially since Truex was dominating yet again.
