Blundell Nazareth crash - update.
Mark Blundell has apparently escaped serious injury after crashing out of the Nazareth CART round.
The Englishman collided with Penske's Helio Castro-Neves in Turn One of the Pennsylvania circuit, scattering bodywork and mechanicals from both cars across a wide section of track. Although Castro-Neves was able to recount his side of the incident to reporters in the pits, Blundell had to be helped from his PacWest-run car, and was taken to the circuit's medical centre.
