Corey LaJoie Experiences Muscle Cramps After NASCAR Race at COTA

Following the NASCAR event at Circuit of the Americas (COTA), Corey LaJoie, a seasoned driver, encountered a significant physical setback that hindered his post-race recovery. Despite commencing the race from a promising starting position, LaJoie’s fortunes quickly turned sour.

Early in the race, on the opening lap, LaJoie found himself entangled in a tight on-track skirmish involving fellow drivers Bubba Wallace and Martin Truex Jr.

The ensuing contact resulted in damage to their respective cars, necessitating pit stops for Wallace and Truex Jr. LaJoie, however, opted to soldier on despite the compromised condition of his vehicle.

As the race concluded, LaJoie disembarked from his car but was immediately overcome by intense discomfort, prompting him to recline on the ground beside his vehicle. Concerned race officials swiftly intervened, transporting LaJoie to the infield care centre for a thorough medical evaluation.

Subsequently, LaJoie revealed the extent of his ordeal, citing severe muscle cramps that afflicted his entire body, from his abdomen down to his feet. Although he managed to navigate the race without incident, he found himself immobilized upon exiting the car due to the sudden onset of debilitating cramps.

Reflecting on the episode, LaJoie speculated that a combination of factors, including dehydration and frustration stemming from the race, likely precipitated the muscle cramps.
