Busch was hospitalized just days before his death with a «serious» unknown illness. For much of May 2026, he had been battling a «sinus cold», - according to USA Today, and the driver himself even mentioned the cough.

«You can still hear it», - Busch told The Athletic on May 16, 2026, less than a week before his death. «I'm still not okay, but the cough was pretty serious last week».

Since Busch’s family has not publicly discussed the details of his hospitalization or death, it remains unclear what illness he had and how he contracted it
