WHOA! Castroneves and Meira touch; Meira slowed in 3-4 and Helio ran right into the rear of Meira's car

Everyone making their first stops of the day............
Doornbos exits first, but he hit a tire exiting his stall; race control may bring him in for a penalty........ :shock:

Most of the teams opted for 4 tires and fuel
