Two IndyNXT drivers have been involved in a massive crash at Mid-Ohio which saw a car go airborne.
Sebastian Murray and Ricardo Escotto experienced a serious crash during the Indy NXT Grand Prix at Mid-Ohio, resulting in Murray’s car going airborne after colliding with the barrier. The incident occurred when Escotto’s car made contact with Murray’s left rear wheel, sending them both into the barrier at the kink towards turn four. Murray’s car then flipped and scattered dirt and carbon fiber across the track. Despite the dramatic crash, both drivers managed to exit their vehicles, with Escotto appearing visibly shaken by the event. The drivers were fighting for positions just outside the top ten, holding 11th and 12th place at the time of the crash. Dennis Haugher ultimately emerged victorious in the race, continuing his impressive season for Andretti, with Caio Collet and Lochie Hughes rounding out the podium for HMD Motorsports and Andretti, respectively.
