Mikhail Aleshin had a big crash in practice at the Fontana track. Initially knocked unconscious he regained consciousness and was airlifted to a nearby medical centre, complaining of pain in his right shoulder and foot.

As we've seen in other oval races recently the fence gave way, not as bad as the Nationwide race at Daytona last year, but nevertheless its not good.

Glad to hear he is (relatively) ok, it could have been much, much worse given the number of other cars in the vicinity.

ETA: Update from Marshall Pruett
@mikhailaleshin update: fractured ribs, broken right clavicle, concussion and chest injuries. He's listed in serious but stable condition.
