sth like this happens to almost every race driver... (running over a pit-crew man).
And just because of her being a woman you Americans all lough about her. If any other driver would have had the same accident with a person in the pitlanes, everybody would have said "it wasn't the driver's fault. The guy was on the wrong place at the wrong moment".
I don't understand you guys... this is not Danica's fault...
Danica does not know how to drive, she has ran over her own crew member in her pit stall, she should have to pay the medical expenses and be fined in the sport after hitting multiple people
@guitarsANDcars39 They have pit speed limiters governed by the car's computer when they are going down the pits. It is even used during practice because it is a safety rule. This guy was simply not paying attention and should not have been at that area walking from half to a whole pit box over from the car he was approaching. If he stayed along the pit wall while walking towards the car, he would have been fine.
It wasn't her fault but he was still in his drivers pit box. That makes it her fault. Each pit box in indy is very long and if a driver hits another car passing through a pit box that is not their own it is their fault so how is it not when you hit a crew member in someone else's pit box?
Most people are being very sexist here and aren't thinking logically. The guy who was hit was standing behind another guy and another car. Race drivers sit very low in these cars, and the ride isn't smooth either. Think what you want, but the ride is very bumpy. Even at relatively low speeds in the pitlane. Therefore, visibility is seriously restricted. Also from that distance, by the time she did spot him she had no time to slow down.
@craigsimons1993 it was during practice for crying out loud, she almost hit a guy on the other team even? what is the reasoning for going that fast down pit lane and cut that close to another car DURING PRACTICE???????
How mean of that guy to hit danica's car, I mean she could have broken a nail or something. Nice to see that ESPN is not bias and clearly stated that its not her fault that she turned directly into an unprotected crew member.
That's what ya get for not keeping your wits about you in a dangerous environment - something, or someone jumps up n bites yer ass. Serves the dipstick right.
I read in the paper when she was pulling into her pit stop she saw a black guy and she doesn't like black guys. So she ran him over. I guess thats okay
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
"not her fault " danica had time to keep going, swerve ,break, that horrible accident could have been avoided, she seen that guy you can tell fom the camera she had to see that guy, and done nothing to avoid it but she wants to prove what a twirp can do push a gas peddle and be a carless hotdog you no the type ,i cant wait till she fills the pain and gets smashed by another careless peedle pushin ,gas ,speed freak wanting a checkerd flag
Oh jeez, why do ya all blame Danica Patrick? She's a woman, driving a car. She's one of the better in the series. No, she is not the best. No, she is not F1 material. Yes, she can bloody well drive a car in a huge roundabout. Heck, who can't?
dumb ass. she blows @ driving & is a b**ch. everyone in that series is such a complete pussy. they all bow down to her and give her free passes on EVERYTHING that other drivers would never get. For the people that think she will get an F1 seat, it will never happen. & you don't want it to. cuz if it does, you will see how s**tty of a driver she really is.
this is so funny yet so sad..i feel bad for the dude but a. danica patrick should not be driving ever shes horrible and b.the dude should have seen it c. its pretty damn entertaining to see this dude get owned..shes a woman and we men never let a woman do a man's job..(im being sarcastic, feminists)titties and beer..
say what you want about the rednecks in NASCAR, at least they are smart enough to wear helmets at all times when they go over the wall, practice and qualifing. In indy car racing they only require helmets during the actual race. That just seems idiotic to me in this day and age with all the attention supposed to be focused on saftey in motorsports
Miss the "real Indy 500" with the Unser's, Rutherford, Andretti's, Mears, Johncock, Sneva, Foyt....Those were the days. Now its all the European drivers that couldn't make it in F-1....
maybe you havent noticed but those cars arent exactly slow... most people when caught off guard like that will freeze initially, yes that means you would have been hit too.
I'm an F1 fan so I do know what speed they travel at, just looked like he saw it in time and tried some kind of side step instead of just jumping the tyres?
To all you assclowns blaming Danica Patrick for this....grow the hell up. Any man that keeps criticizing a woman for becoming a success in an historically male dominated sport is a total coward. I think it's great that she has become a well respected driver. All the men that criticize her would probably wet their pants if they tried to do what she does in a race car. This incident was absoulutely the guys fault...what the hell was he doing standing there ??
What the h*ll was he doing there? "Examing another car in the pit area" - bullshit. Get out of the way idiot! He shoult be kicked off the team for this. A bit clumsy of her, but this was absolutely his fault.
Come on, everyone knows that this could happen to any driver. It's just hilarious to blame this on her gender, that's all. The only thing that could have made the joke better is if Danica was Asian. In all seriousness though I hope Buckman is okay.
For all those who keep blaming it on the fact she is a woman, I suggest you go look up F1 and other races. She is not the first and wont be the last to have an accident or hit someone in the pits.
LIGHTS, CAMERA, ACTION!!!!! Pass this around on three different videos and you will become famous in just a week!!! THIS IS NOT A LIE!!!!

HINT this is no ordinary chain letter, this is for real!!! DO IT!!!
woman driver.. What did she do, put her makeup on or what?? There was no reason to drive so fast, it was during practise and this woman driver sure need to practise some more

Don't get me wrong, I feel bad for him and I hope he recovers, as well as I feel bad for her, because it can't be fun to hit someone like that.
My point being that accidents happens all the time, and this time it happened to be a woman, and of course small dick men like yourself have to point that out.
We can take the woman out of the picture, foolish of me to express myself like that. The driver was going to fast for the siuation.
This happend during practise, And during that time there is alot of peoples in the pitlane. The driver should have been paying mutch more attetion of what was infront.
Accidents involving other cars happens all the time, Hitting some dude does not.
My dick has nothing to do with this video, Sometimes it's small and sometimes it's big, dont ask me why! 500C
It is far more the crew members fault than hers. He would have heard a loud horn everytime a car enters pitlane so he should have looked to see that Danica was coming and been aware that he was standing in the approach to her pit. He has far more ability to see wwhat's around than she does sitting in the car. And the drivers need to come in quick to practice making the pit stops. Remember in the race she'll have to stop with mechanics already in position to work on the car.
Yeah, I totally agree that you can't blame her for the incident. But I still think it looked like she came in very fast (just like any driver would've in IRL, I guess). Even in slow motion it looked really fast. Looks much faster than they come in to pit in F1 to me. Like I said before it's the same speed limits for everybody so slowing the speed in the pits wouldn't give anyone any disadvantage.
C'mon man; so you're gonna blame the innocent man so you don't have to blame the women? If he did jump out of the way and didn't get hit, you'd be saying, "why'd he jump out of the way like that? Because he thought she'd hit him? What a shovenist!" Give me a break. She hit him because she wanted to come in hard for the camera; she got overexcited. No big deal. This doesn't "happen all the time" by the way.
She probably had no idea the camera was even there. From where she was sitting, Danica would have had a hard time seeing the crew member as he was standing behind another mechanic, let alone a camera that was well behind the pit wall. She was coming in relatively quickly because the drivers are always taking the opportunity to practice their pit entry. It keeps them sharp for when they have to do it in the race and coming into the pit box slowly could cost them a position.
That looked extremely nasty. Why are the cars allowed to drive at those speeds in the pits anyway? If you lower the speed limit it's still the same for everyone.
THATS WHAT HAPPENS WHEN A GUY WALKS IN FRONT OF A RACE CAR........PEOPLE WHO TRY TO MAKE THIS OUT TO BE DANICAS FAULT ARE JUST MORON COACH POTATOES

Like I said before it's the same speed limits for everybody so slowing the speed in the pits wouldn't give anyone any disadvantage.

C'mon man; so you're gonna blame the innocent man so you don't have to blame the women? If he did jump out of the way and didn't get hit, you'd be saying, "why'd he jump out of the way like that? Because he thought she'd hit him? What a shovenist!" Give me a break. She hit him because she wanted to come in hard for the camera; she got overexcited. No big deal. This doesn't "happen all the time" by the way.

She probably had no idea the camera was even there. From where she was sitting, Danica would have had a hard time seeing the crew member as he was standing behind another mechanic, let alone a camera that was well behind the pit wall. She was coming in relatively quickly because the drivers are always taking the opportunity to practice their pit entry. It keeps them sharp for when they have to do it in the race and coming into the pit box slowly could cost them a position.

That looked extremely nasty. Why are the cars allowed to drive at those speeds in the pits anyway? If you lower the speed limit it's still the same for everyone.

That was at about 50 mph. It really wasn't that fast. There was a time when the cars came down the pitlane as fast as the driver dared.
