Justin Wilson was airlifted out of Pocono Raceway and is in a coma after he was hit by a large piece of debris during Sunday’s IndyCar race.
Wilson was struck in the head by a piece of Sage Karam’s car when Karam spun into the wall. Wilson’s car veered left and directly into an interior wall.
In a statement just after 9 p.m. ET Sunday, the Verizon IndyCar Series said:
“Wilson sustained a severe head injury during today’s event at Pocono Raceway.“Wilson is currently in a coma and in critical condition while undergoing further evaluation at Lehigh Valley Health Network Cedar Crest Hospital in Allentown, Pa.“IndyCar sends its thoughts and prayers to Justin, his family and Andretti Autosport during this difficult time.“Additional updates to Wilson’s condition will be released when available.”
There were no further updates as of this morning.
