Dixon walked from the accident and didn't mention any concerns following the incident yesterday.

However he was sporting crutches today and says the doctors aren't yet sure if he's suffered a sprain, bruising or a small fracture.

He says they'll know more once the swelling goes down.

"At this point I'm just trying to keep some weight off it, hopefully it'll be all fine."

There is a double round in Detroit this weekend with Dixon 4th overall in the Indycar standings.
