IndyCar race red flagged due to serious accident

The Detroit GP Race 1 has been red-flagged after 27 of 70 laps due to a scary accident by Arrow McLaren SP driver Felix Rosenqvist.

Rosenqvist was running alone when his throttle stuck wide open sending him head-on into the tire wall in Turn 6. The force was so great the concrete wall behind the tire wall was knocked over.

He is awake and alert with no life-threatening injuries, but he was placed on a backboard and sent to the hospital for x-rays on his legs and back.

The crews are having a hard time getting the concrete wall repaired.

Scott Dixon is currently leading from James Hinchcliffe. Both have yet to pit and are short on fuel.
