IndyCar driver Robert Wickens is being treated for injuries to his lower extremities, right arm and spine following an accident early in a race at Pocono. That caused Hunter-Reay's car to careen into the wall and Wickens' car was pulled along for the ride. Once Wickens' car soared over Hunter-Reay's and hit the fence, it spun round and round like a top. The fencing was shredded and Wickens' car was reduced to just the tub, which came to a rest on the track along an interior wall. Medical workers calmly attended to Wickens, who was taken to an ambulance before he was transported to the helicopter.
