He did get burned pretty on his legs. The ASCS press release stated 2nd degree burns. It wasn't a fire but hot liquids. They took him to the hospital after the races. We all wish him well.

Damion did receive a couple of "quarter" size burns to his lower leg. He was kept overnight in hospital for treatment. He has been released and is on his way home to Indy.

I guess there was a little fire and the safety crew took a little time to get there to put the fire out. Jack Dover's dad (local driver) put the fire out with his t-shirt but the burn came from some hot liquid. I was there but was in turn 2 and the fire happened coming out of turn 4 so I didn't see any of it. I did see Damion recieving treatment in the ambulance while the feature event finished.

Damion- The safety crew should have been there in a instant. Thanks to Jack Dover for helping
out.
