Just two turns into his second qualification run of the day, Carpenter’s No. 20 Fuzzy’s Ultra Premium Vodka Chevrolet snapped around and slammed the Turn 2 SAFER Barrier. The impact caused the car to go airborne almost completely on its left side for a few moments before coming down right-side up and sliding to a stop on the backstretch.
Carpenter, the lone owner/driver in the IZOD IndyCar Series, was shown to be moving and removed the steering wheel after the car came to a halt. He was later confirmed to be checked and released from the infield care center, and is cleared to drive.
