The Ed Carpenter Racing driver suffered the clavicle injury while on a training ride yesterday, according to a statement from the team. VeeKay is being treated by IndyCar medical staff, but the team said that it would provide an update soon on whether or not he would be available to race this weekend. "Yesterday, Ed Carpenter Racing driver Rinus VeeKay was involved in an accident on a cycling trail during a training ride," the team said.
