    Reigning world champion Casey Stoner is being treated for a torn ligament in his right ankle after crashing in qualifications Saturday for the Indianapolis Grand Prix.

    The Australian's motorcycle wobbled as it came through one of the turns on the 2.621-mile road course. Stoner went airborne over the handlebars and slid across the track. After trying to stand up, he pointed at his injured leg and was taken away on a stretcher.

    Originally, series officials thought Stoner injured his left ankle. It's unclear whether he'll race Sunday.
