Robert Wickens...
"..is being treated for injuries to his lower extremities, right arm and spine following an incident in the ABC Supply 500. He also sustained a pulmonary contusion. He will undergo an MRI and probable surgery at Lehigh Valley Hospital-Cedar Crest. Further updates will be provided when available....."
That was one intense crash.....

May he have a full and speedy recovery. That was a horrible wreck.

One of the worst I ever saw. A tribute to the safety built into these cars.
i really hate Pocono. The races are uninteresting and there have Benny’s some devestating crashes there. Almost as boring as Michigan.

"..INDIANAPOLIS – Titanium rods and screws were placed in IndyCar driver Robert Wickens' spine during surgery Monday to stabilize a thoracic spinal fracture associated with a spinal cord injury..Wickens is expected to undergo surgery to repair his non-spinal injuries (fractures in his lower extremities and right forearm)...."

Ouch!
Mind you a massive accident.
Yep, I was reading this yesterday. Sad news.

Looking at the 2019 schedule....Indycar needs to get away from Pocono and Texas...and go back to places like Phoenix and Milwaukee with a low down force package....
IndyCar ovals ought to be Phoenix, Indianapolis Motor Speedway, The Milwaukee Mile, Iowa Speedway and Gateway Motorsports Park.
I miss Nazareth. That track kicked a**!
Wickens no longer requires his support vest!
He's learning how to stand up in a walker now...
