CHARLOTTE, N.C. — Three-time NASCAR champion Tony Stewart underwent a second surgery on his broken right leg in North Carolina on Thursday and remains hospitalized under observation. The surgery was to insert a metal rod inside the tibia, and Stewart-Haas Racing said a specialist pressed the tibia to its correct position. Stewart broke both the tibia and fibula in his right leg Monday night in a sprint car race in Iowa.
