Airborne For An Indy Driver

Robert Wickens suffered broken legs, a broken right arm, a spinal injury and a bruised lung in his shunt at Pocono Raceway on Sunday.

The Schmidt Peterson Motorsports-Honda driver collided with Ryan Hunter-Reay on Lap 6 of Sunday’s ABC Supply 500 at the tri-oval, and launched off the back of the Andretti Autosport machine. Wickens’ car then rode along the SAFER barrier and tore itself along the catchfencing, before returning to the track and gyrating through several 360deg spins.
