He exited the car, and was taken to the infield care center and released. He was then interviewed on TV where he was asked about the crash, and responded, and seemed ok, but somewhat curiously, didn't seem to know what happened to cause the crash, which for those familiar with Josef's usual interviews, may have seemed strange as he is usually very precise. According to the reports, at some point, after being checked out, and after the interview, he lost conciousness and fell, hitting his head, and was then taken to the infield care center again, where the decision was made to air lift him to Des Moines where he could be more thoroughly tested/evaluated. I'm sure all IndyCar fans out there are hoping for the best for this very talented driver.
