The first caution of the 106th Running of the Indianapolis 500 came out after Rinus VeeKay crashed from second-place.
The 21-year-old Dutchman was running in second when the backend of his No. 21 Ed Carpenter Racing Chevrolet snapped in Turn 2 and into the outside wall, dashing any hopes of victory on Lap 39.
The front row starter @rinusveekay is out of the #Indy500 after this incident in turn 2.
