INDYCAR: Three cars in scary pit lane crash

Alexander Rossi, Charlie Kimball, and Helio Castroneves walked away from a scary pit lane crash on lap 64 during Monday's rain-delayed Pocono IndyCar race.

Rossi was released from his pit stall into the low lane at the same time that Kimball was moving down from the high lane to pull in for his stop, while Castroneves exited his stall ahead of them.

The initial clash involving Rossi and Kimball lifted the front of Rossi's No. 98 Andretti-Herta Autosport Honda into the air, and then over the right sidepod of Castroneves’ No.3 Team Penske Chevy – leaving marks that are visible in the photo below.

Rossi and Castroneves were forced to retire due to damage, although Rossi’s team were advised that he’d have been issued a penalty for avoidable contact and contact with pit equipment had he been able to rejoin the race. Kimball was able to continue, albeit a lap down.

"I just saw a car on top of me all of a sudden,” said Castroneves. “It was scary; it hit a little bit of my hand. [But] inside the car I was more protected than what it looked like."
