The Big Machine Records CEO Scott Borchetta is now in ‘stable condition’ after he crashed his race car on Sunday at the Trans AM2 Series in Georgia.
The 60-year-old executive, who infamously sold his label — and Taylor Swift’s early master recordings — to Scooter Braun in 2019, was recuperating after the scary crash, which happened during the 24th lap around the track, according to the motorsport site TobyChristie.com.
‘I can tell you [Scott] is OK. He is conscious, and he’s been talking to his team, but he is on his way to the hospital,’ commentators announcing the race said shortly after the incident, according to the sit. ‘It was a big hit, but I am glad to say he is now in good care and being taken to the hospital. That’s the latest.’
On Monday, Borchetta’s label confirmed his crash, saying that he ‘was taken to the hospital to assess his injuries and is currently in stable condition.’
‘We ask everyone to please respect the Borchetta family’s privacy during this time,’ it added in a statement.
