Justin drives through the pit lanes
Justin was the 2010 pole sitter and was fourth on the time chart at 1:00.6485 when his car "refused to go into neutral". Honda Indy reported that "Crew members Michael Cole of Dale Coyne Racing and Daniel Martin of Dragon Racing were treated and released from the infield care center. Raffi Aroyan of Dragon Racing was transported to St. Michael's Hospital for further evaluation, which revealed no injuries. Chuck Homan of Dragon Racing was treated at St. Michael's Hospital and released."

Wilson said. :"At the last second I tried to dive into the wall to take speed off, but those guys were there and had no idea I was coming and even diving to the wall I still hit them." A ambulance pulled into pit lane and picked up two people for transportation to a local hospital.
Justin also had problems on Friday with a crash into the tires at turn number 8. The emergency crews pulled the car out of the mess, removed the front cowling and Justin cranked the car up and got back into the practice.
