The best kind of love is Instagrammed, right?
NTT Data Chip Ganassi Racing driver Tony Kanaan and wife Lauren Kanaan (nee Bohlander) took to Instagram yesterday to post a couple videos of Kanaan’s surgery on Monday.
Kanaan posted an Instagram picture following the surgery, which is reportedly for a hernia per USA Today Sports’ Brant James (see below).
That well-Instagrammed surgery @TonyKanaan had was for a hernia, I am told. @indycar

What was a bit funnier, perhaps, was Lauren Kanaan posting a handful of Instagram videos of a woozy - but still fast and sharp - “TK” from her own account.

The offseason for Tony Kanaan, since the IndyCar season finale at Sonoma on August 30, has included tests at Road America and Phoenix, another triathlon and now this surgery.
Chip Ganassi Racing generally tends to put its IndyCar and NASCAR stars in cars for the Rolex 24 at Daytona, which is already next month.
With rumors swirling that Ganassi will run at least one and possibly two Daytona Prototypes at the Rolex 24 in addition to their new Ford GT program, and with Kanaan one of four drivers with a shot to defend his overall win, you’d think he will be good to go to be named to one of those seats.
