IndyCar driver Robert Wickens is making progress in his recovery from a horrific crash at the Pocono Raceway last August.

The crash left him a paraplegic, and in October Wickens said he was months away from walking again.

Just three months later, Wickens is showing signs of progress, as he posted a video of himself walking to his Twitter account Tuesday.

"This was a big day and first time I could take more than 1-3 steps before fatiguing out!," Wickens said on his Twitter post.

The video shows Wickens walking with the assistance of a walker while being supported by an "Exoskelton."

Wickens said his right leg was unassisted while his left leg is being supported by the Exoskeleton.
