Schmidt Peterson Motorsports James Hinchcliffe is expected
to make a full recovery from the severe injuries the Canadian suffered in his
accident during practice for Sunday’s 99th edition of the
Indianapolis 500.
The Toronto native who was transferred to the IU Health
Methodist hospital in Indianapolis for treatment on Monday and underwent
surgery has credited the safety crews and medical staff at the hospital with
saving his life after he suffered major blood loss in the accident.
The mayor
of Hinch Town as he is known as is out of intensive care but will not race in
the Verizon IndyCar Series for the foreseeable future.
Honda have confirmed that Hinchcliffe’s crash was caused by
a front right suspension failure as the 28 year old entered Turn 3 of the
Indianapolis Motor Speedway. The medical team treating Hinchcliffe are happy with the
progress he is making.
