IZOD IndyCar Series driver Pippa Mann has been released from the University Medical Center in Las Vegas, following surgery on Sunday evening to clean and assess a severe burn injury to the little finger of her right hand.

The Rahal Letterman Lanigan driver will require a subsequent surgery in the coming weeks to fully repair the injury, but is expected to make a full recovery.

Mann would like to thank everyone for their kind messages. At this time her thoughts are obviously with the Wheldon family.

UPDATE @ 1:45PM EST

After her accident at Las Vegas Motor Speedway Pippa was kept at the hospital overnight for observation. The last information we received is that she will be released sometime today.
