DAYTONA BEACH, Florida (Reuters) - The Busch family suffered a second setback in as many days when younger sibling Kyle broke his leg in a support race to join suspended older brother Kurt on the sidelines of Sunday's NASCAR Sprint Cup Series season-opening Daytona 500.

Busch's Toyota slammed into an inside retaining wall at high speed late in Saturday's race and he was taken to a nearby hospital, where he was diagnosed with a compound fracture of his lower right leg and a left foot fracture.
