Indy 500 practice is underway in Indianapolis, Indiana. Today, it’s the Fast Friday portion of NTT Indycar Series practice on the 2.5-mile of Indianapolis Motor Speedway with drivers in qualifying trim.
Watch the Indy 500 practice crash video below.
Kyffin Simpson went for a wild ride off turn four with 5 hours remaining in the session. The backend stepped out and he backed it hard into the outside wall.
The 20-year-old Ganassi driver bounced off the wall and was rolling backwards down the track. Still at a high rate of speed, the car launched off the ground and caught air.
The No. 8 car was lifted completely off the ground. Luckily, it came back down on it’s side then landed back on it’s wheels.
The driver took a trip to the infield care center following the crash.

Kyffin Simpson comments
“I’m all good, praise the Lord, Kyffin Simpson told FOX after exiting the infield care center.
“It’s a tough one. A tough way to start out Fast Friday. Just a weird crash. Everything about it was weird.”
“Even from the out lap, something didn’t feel quite right. I kept going right on the weight jacker, trying to help the car out. And, it just never felt the way I expected it to.”
Kyffin added, “It was just a weird one.”
