Dale Jr. Download<\/em>, a fan asked what it's like when a driver goes to the infield care center. Unsurprisingly, Earnhardt didn't disappoint with his thorough answer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n“When you go into the infield care center they're all a little different as far as the layout, but there's usually like a horseshoe desk in the middle and there'll be a bunch of people in there doing different roles and responsibilities,” he said. “And I'm not sure exactly what their roles are, but there'll be a lead like a neurosurgeon and possibly a lead doctor. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
“So there'll be a guy in there to be able to check you out for a concussion in the room. But there will also be a physician to manage any kind of breaks or any kind of severe wound or whatever you might have, right? And so if you got pain anywhere that may be a break or a bruise. There's two different people working on top of you.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\nBut it's a really surreal moment when you're all sitting there and everybody's kind of getting checked out. <\/p>Dale Earnhardt jr.<\/cite><\/blockquote><\/figure>\n\n\n\n“And so off to the side, there's gurneys and they're divided by curtains, right? So there's one room with about three gurneys for however many drivers are in there at the same time, and you're all divided by a curtain. You don't go to \u2014 you don't have a room. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
“And the times that I've actually been in there where there's a multi-car crash, it's interesting because every driver is in a different state of mind. Guy might be in there madder than hell. Somebody might be in there not in too bad of a mood.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“But it's a really surreal moment when you're all sitting there and everybody's kind of getting checked out. They check your pulse and give you a good kind of physical exam and ask you a lot of questions. And they're watching you listening to you answer questions, listening to how you're responding, paying attention. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
“They've seen the wreck, maybe on television and a monitor in the room. They weren't in the car with you. They weren't out there watching it live. So they're very inquisitive, and it sometimes can be annoying because you're mad, right? You're out of the race. You're upset about that. But they're asking these questions for a reason trying to truly understand how they might need to examine you and what they might want to pay most attention to.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
