UPDATE: Injured Detroit course worker released from hospital

IMSA announced Monday that the response worker injured at Belle Isle has been discharged from the hospital and he has returned home to continue his recovery.

James Davison lost control of his No. 007 Aston Martin V12 Vantage GT3 on the wet track and rear-ended a stationary safety truck in the Belle Isle race, with the left front of his car going underneath the truck and lifting it off the ground. The crash involved three other competitors as well as two safety workers. One of the safety workers suffered broken ribs, a collapsed lung, and damage to his spleen and kidney.

In the wake of this and other recent incidents involving safety vehicles, such as Jules Bianchi's tragic accident at last October's Japanese Grand Prix, the Motorsport Safety Foundation – a nonprofit organization dedicated to improving safety standards in motorsport – is conducting a survey of views about safety car deployments in motorsports. The survey is designed to gather feedback from all perspectives, including fans, drivers and safety personnel. The survey is completely anonymous and the group urges all interested parties to answer all questions as honestly as possible.
