A driver has died after being struck by a Nascar star's car during a row on a race track in New York.
Video shows Kevin Ward Jr's car hitting a wall after colliding with three-time Nascar champion Tony Stewart's vehicle at Canandaigua Motorsports Park on Saturday night.
The 20-year-old, wearing a black firesuit on the dimly-lit track, got out to confront rival Stewart during the sprint-car race.
Emergency services were quickly on the scene Ward Jr was hit by Stewart's car, sending him 50ft through the air.
Paramedics tried to revive him, but he was pronounced dead at a nearby hospital later that night.
Police said they are not investigating the incident as a criminal matter.
Tony Stewart was questioned by police and released Stewart, 42, was "'fully co-operative" while being questioned and later released, they said.
Officials immediately stopped the race and posted a message on social media encouraging fans to "pray for the entire racing community of fans, drivers, and families."
"People that witnessed it were horrified," said Ontario County Sheriff Philip Povero.
"They were extremely shocked."
