The Team Penske driver went airborne after spinning out of control and colliding with the wall at turn two.

McLaughlin has turned in 65 laps in a back-up vehicle - he was ranked 31st of the 33 entries.

His team-mate - and defending champion - Josef Newgarden, will start at the back of the grid on race day after an illegal modification to his car used in qualifying.
