Multiple accidents marred a Saturday race at the Talladega Superspeedway, including one that sent a car driven by Blaine Perkins airborne.

Perkins was rushed to a local hospital at the Ag-Pro 300 Xfinity Series race, according to NASCAR.

However, video of the incident shows him walking out of the car on his own.

On its website, NASCAR said that the crash involving Perkins took place when his car hit the front of one driven by Jade Buford.

NASCAR said the ensuing red flag lasted for 12 minutes.

Stacey, meanwhile, hit the inside wall of the track.

“Just got free, took the air from me and got sideways and just couldn’t cut it back and hit the inside wall,” he said, according to NBC.

“It wasn’t as bad as it looked,” Stacey said according to Outkick. “I thought it was going to be a hard hit, too, and it wasn’t as bad as I thought it would be.”

Stacey and Buford were treated at the speedway and released.
