ARLINGTON, TX -- There was a red flag on the track before IndyCar's second practice of the day for the Grand Prix of Arlington even began. As the first group of drivers exited pit lane, the red flag came out due to a catering crew being on the track. The practice was halted before any drivers got up to speed, and no one was harmed.

"So we're going to send safety around the course to check everything we have here. That's how serious this was. Once we have a secure course that we're comfortable with, we'll give you a count in.
" The first Grand Prix of Arlington is taking place this weekend, with the race set for 12:30 p. m. on Sunday.
