NASCAR driver Frankie Muniz is out of the hospital after crashing his car during practice at the Daytona International Speedway earlier today.
Muniz, who famously starred in FOX’s hit sitcom Malcom in the Middle and the recent sequel series Malcolm in the Middle: Life’s Still Unfair, was preparing for a race at Ford’s Proud to Honor event when he crashed. He was then rushed to a nearby medical facility. Entertainment Tonight released a photo of the damaged car, showing the roof had to be cut open to get Muniz out.
According to TMZ, Muniz has already left the hospital, but is still recovering from the crash. Muniz released a statement saying, “I am a little sore, but my Mustang did its job in protecting me.”

After the crash, Muniz said he was “disappointed” that he wouldn’t be able to participate in the Proud to Honor event that same day, which was meant to honor military veterans. Muniz was supposed to partner with Cup Series driver Austin Cindric for the race.
“I was looking forward to honoring the service of our veterans and racing against these other amazing drivers,” he added.
While Muniz is famous for his work as an actor, particularly Malcolm in the Middle, he has also pursued a successful NASCAR racing career. Since 2023, two years after his son’s birth, Muniz has competed in three full-time seasons as a stock-car racer.
In an interview on the Drive podcast, Muniz said that he was “finally making my dream a reality” by becoming a full-time NASCAR driver, wanting his son to grow up seeing him working hard toward a singular goal.
Muniz also said that, as a NASCAR driver, he was “putting in a hundred percent because I don’t wanna look back at this opportunity and go, man, I wish I tried harder.”
