WATKINS GLEN, N.Y. (AP) — Tony Stewart says "there aren't words" to describe his sadness over the collision that killed Kevin Ward Jr.
In a statement released by spokesman Mike Arning, Stewart says "my thoughts and prayers are with his family, friends and everyone affected by this tragedy."
The three-time NASCAR champion struck and killed Kevin Ward Jr. with his car on Saturday night as Ward walked toward it following contact between the two during their race at Canandaigua Motorsports Park.
The full text of the statement read: "There aren't words to describe the sadness I feel about the accident that took the life of Kevin Ward Jr. It's a very emotional time for all involved, and it is the reason I've decided not to participate in today's race at Watkins Glen. My thoughts and prayers are with his family, friends and everyone affected by this tragedy."
Stewart's team had said earlier Sunday that Stewart would be behind the wheel of his No. 14 Chevrolet when the green flag waved. Regan Smith drove Stewart's car instead.

Our family, like yours, was tasked with living our lives after my brother was taken from us at the age of 18; that was in 1971. Many years have passed, but he lives on in our hearts. When the difficult days become more bearable, open your hearts and you will feel Kevin because love never dies. May God be with you and offer you His love and support at this time and as you move forward.

My heart seriously BREAKS for this family & everyone who had the pleasure of knowing this man. Gone WAY too soon. I can't even begin to imagine how they feel or how they're even coping with this right now if MY heart is breaking this bad & I hadn't even heard of him until this accident. They lost a son, a brother, a friend, a boyfriend.. It's just not fair.
Godspeed, Kevin Ward Jr.
Hope I can have the honor of seeing you race up in heaven someday soon. :-)
Seemed...
