Crew members for No. 18 car hit on pit road at Indy

Two crew members were hit by a car on pit road during Sunday's Indianapolis 500.

As James Davison was exiting his pit stall after the halfway point of the race, his teammate, Pippa Mann, was in the left lane on pit road. There was no room for Davison and after the two cars collided, he hit the crew members from Tristan Vautier's team. All three cars drive for Dale Coyne Racing.

It looked like an especially gnarly hit for the crew member on the left side of the screen. Teams are supposed to watch for other cars coming down pit road to attempt to prevent these types of situations. One crew member was checked and released, while the other was taken to a nearby hospital.

The Coyne cars weren't factors for the race win and Davison's car was damaged enough that his race was over after the incident.
