John Andretti, the team owner, expects the car to be ready and Kanaan back on track by mid afternoon. He said, "They were talking about being ready by noon and being out there for practice this afternoon, so they're probably going through the tech line right now and will be talking to you in a couple of hours.

While Sunday's crash was seen by many as a replay of the one of Saturday, the IndyCar Series winner in 2004, was able to climb out his wrecked vehicle without assistance. His back up car had gone spinning out of the first turn, with the rear end hitting the outside wall. Tony Kanaan skidded through the short chute on first and second turns, spun again and slammed into the outside wall again.

Meanwhile, team mate Danica Patrick seems to have composed back after her emotional outpour near the Gasoline Alley on Saturday. The IndyCar glamor girl driver had blamed her poor hand at the qualifier on the team's setup of her car. Today, she said, "I was a little emotional yesterday and I know we had some issues. I was still shaking when I did the interview because we were on a very, very ragged edge out there."
