Two-time Indy 500 winner Newgarden flips car, walks away from wreck in IndyCar race at Gateway

MADISON, Ill. (AP) — Two-time Indianapolis 500 winner Josef Newgarden flipped his car upside down during Sunday night’s race at Gateway outside St. Louis.

Newgarden crashed midway through the race after contact with Louis Foster.

Foster spun into the wall and shot across the track, stopping directly in Newgarden’s path. Newgarden was unable to avoid the direct collision and his car launched into the air, damaged the SAFER barrier, landed on its roof and then skidded for a considerable distance.
