Fire in the pits!
Looks like the #11 of Kanaan has a problem.....lots of water being thrown on the fire; several teams pitched in, including those of Briscoe, Castroneves and Patrick

Race control reporting Kanaan is unhurt, but he will be checked at the infield care centre...............he appears to be okay, though.
