Driver Thomas Annunziata was transported to an area medical facility for further evaluation after a fire broke out on his Tricon Garage No. 1 Toyota during Saturday’s Craftsman Truck Series race at Lime Rock Park, NASCAR officials announced.
Annunziata was running second in Saturday’s LiUNA 150 when flames flew from under the hood of his No. 1 Toyota during a Lap 79 caution period. He stopped his truck in the grass near the pit entrance, and he exited under his own power before the AMR Safety Team arrived to assist him.
Tricon No. 1 crew chief Jerame Donley said post-race that the team would conduct a thorough investigation into what sparked the issue, saying that an initial inspection in the garage failed to show a definitive root cause.
