Schuyler County Sheriff William Yessman Jr. says the woman’s death Sunday at the Watkins Glen International racetrack was “unattended” and doesn’t appear to be suspicious. He says no other information is being released yet, including the woman’s name.

Phish’s Magnaball festival started Friday and drew more than 30,000 fans to the track. The band also played a weekend event at the car racing venue in the summer of 2011.
