tedicast Posted July 8, 2005 Report Share Posted July 8, 2005 COPIED FROM JAYSKI'S WEBSITE..... Stewart wrecks in practice: #20-Tony Stewart crashed in turn 4 during cup practice for the USG Sheetrock 400 at Chicagoland Speedway. Rescue workers took their time in helping Stewart out of the #20-Home Depot Chevy. He appeared a bit groggy, however walked to the ambulance under his own power and waved to the fans. He was transported to St. Joseph's Hospital for precautionary xrays. The team will go to a back up car. Stewart's car may have cut down a right front tire, however at this time crew chief Greg Zipadelli doesn't know what happened. Joe Gibbs Racing's Busch driver, J.J. Yeley is practicing Stewart's backup car.(PRN's Garage Pass at the track) AND Stewart will come back to the track and if cleared at the track, he could qualify the car, if not, J.J. Yeley would qualify the car and Stewart would race the car, falling to the rear of the field on Sunday. Stewart has no broken bones and is alert and ok, may have a possible concussion.(Speed Channel's NASCAR Live)(7-8-2005) J.J. Yeley qualified the #20 car 13th. Looks like Tony Stewart will start the race, with Yeley standing by to take over. Definately not what Tony needed, he was on quite a roll the past couple races Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James7xChamp3 Posted July 8, 2005 Report Share Posted July 8, 2005 Re: Tony Stewart Injured at Chicago I seen that. I hope he is ok. I agree, that the team didn't need that. They were definitely on a role. Looks like they have another great car though with JJ putting it in the 13th spot. This will stoke Tony up to drive the wheels off it Sunday as long as he is ok to drive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
