Another member here (SchumiSaloZanardi) uploaded this video and in the description described it with great inaccuracy. When I corrected him he deleted my comments and banned me from commenting on any other of his videos.

The truth is of this incident is that Heidfeld braked too hard on cold brakes and the car snap oversteered (the rear end kicked) and he went flying down towards the corner. It was Heidfeld's fault which he admitted. The yellow car was actually Takuma Sato's who did not move for some time after the accident. Sato was bruised and the area around the pedals were crusehd slightly making it very difficult for Sato to crawl out. Eventually, he did get out and he was airlifted to the hospital. SchumiSaloZanardi told something which was completely ridiculous and then deleted my comments correcting him. It was not Sato's fault at all; it was Heidfeld. Sato was a victim. Heidfeld was not shunted by anyone.
