He tweeted afterward that he was "okay."
"I'm okay after that big crash. A bit sore. Really frustrated because we were battling all race in the top 5. I still know I have a lot to learn, but I know I belong out there in a race car. I'm no where near my peak. Thanks to my team @RetteJones30 for all their hard work," he wrote on social media.
