Kyle Larson was fired Tuesday by Chip Ganassi Racing, completing a stunning downfall for the budding NASCAR star who uttered a racial slur during a live-streamed virtual race and then watched nearly every one of his sponsors drop him. The 27-year-old Larson, in his seventh Cup season with Ganassi and considered the top free agent in NASCAR just three days ago, is now out of a job in what could ultimately be an eight-figure blunder. 'After much consideration, Chip Ganassi Racing has determined that it will end its relationship with driver Kyle Larson,' Ganassi said. 'As we said before, the comments that Kyle made were both offensive and unacceptable especially given the values of our organization. As we continued to evaluate the situation with all the relevant parties, it became obvious that this was the only appropriate course of action to take.'

A quarter of Michigan's workers are now jobless with more than one million residents applying for unemployment benefits amid the coronavirus pandemic. Michigan's increase in claims for unemployment benefits makes it the third highest state in the country behind California and Pennsylvania. The outbreak has now thrown at least 16.8 million Americans out of work since mid-March as tough measures to control the coronavirus abruptly grounds the country to a halt. Officials in Michigan say that more than one million people - or a quarter of the state's workforce - have so far filed for unemployment benefits. The latest Labor Department figures, which account for the three weeks from March 15 to April 4, show that just over 817,000 Michigan workers have applied for benefits. New figures will be released on Thursday that account for last week's claims, which could push the figure in line with the million claims the state is reporting.
