Kyle Busch's wife, Samantha Busch, recently shared a glimpse of the stunning outfits she has packed for her bucket list trip to Europe. Samantha was planning her itinerary well in advance and has now unveiled a sneak peek into her wardrobe for the Italian getaway during the two-week Paris Olympic break in NASCAR.
As NASCAR's Indianapolis weekend is under schedule, Richard Childress Racing driver Busch is struggling to claim his maiden win of the season and is on the verge of not qualifying for the 2024 playoffs round, the first time in his Cup Series career. With a much-needed break from the underwhelming season, this vacation to Italy might become a sigh of relief and rejuvenate #8 Busch for the remaining 4 regular season races.
In a recent post on Instagram, Samantha decked up several outfits for a chance to make a fashion statement in Italy. She also added that she has dreamt of going to the European nation for almost all her life, to visit her father's birthplace and meet their family.
"Here are just a few of the 10 million outfits I packed for our upcoming trip next week 😂Woah, NEXT WEEK!! I literally can’t believe it!...My Dad was born in Italy and came over to America when he was 6 so one of these days we are going to see where he grew up and meet family! Which of these looks are you loving?💚, Samantha wrote.
Moreover, a couple of months ago, Samantha posted a brief plan for the Busch family's stay in Italy and asked for recommendations from her fans on Instagram.
Ticking off the place from her bucket list, Busch's wife shared her travel schedule which started by landing in Rome, followed by a day in Naples to visit where her father grew up, and then, a seven-day boat journey to the Amalfi coast.
"Andremo in Italia🍝.Counting down the days until our first Italian vacation, my bucket list trip 🤩 I need your help! Seeking your favorite hidden gems, mouthwatering restaurants, and off-the-beaten-path adventures...Please share your top suggestions and help me craft the ultimate Italian itinerary, thank you! 🍷,"Samantha wrote on Instagram.
Meanwhile, the 39-year-old Busch prepares for the Brickyard 400 race at Indianapolis Motor Speedway to redeem himself this season. #8 Chevy driver in his previous seven starts faced his fifth DNF for RCR at Pocono Raceway.

Kyle Busch is in his second season with Richard Childress Racing as the full-time driver. He won three races for RCR in 15 starts in the 2023 Cup Series season and now is on a 42-race winless streak.
After Sunday's race at Pocono, Samantha shared her upsetting remark when #8 Busch spun out with 40 laps to go and captioned the post on Instagram by writing:
"What do you even say. This year has been heartbreaking."
Here's a look at the complete incident that led to Busch's fifth DNF of the season:
So far in the 2024 Cup Series season, Busch is 102 points below the playoff cutline and has accumulated two top-5s and six top-10 finishes in 21 starts.
