  • he got out of that car like nothing happened

  • Very crasy!!!!!!

  • This is a REAL racing driver!!!!

  • cart waS IN THE FOREFRONT IN SAFETY PERIOD

  • 1982 was a terrible year for motorsport crashes in both f1 and indycar

  • Once again we see why dirt banks dont make good crash barriers.

  • @chupaisto1 well look what happened in 82 in f1. gilles villeneuve was killed at zolder in an accident remarkably similar to this one. didier pironi nearly died at hockenheim....in another accident that looked frighteningly like this one.

  • @chupaisto1 i'll agree that there was luck involved when it came to spectators not being injured or killed here. i meant it was design safety from the chassis standpoint that let simon walk away from this.

  • rollovers, they are very spectacular but not nearly as dangerous and fatal as head-on crashes.

  • @jbracer86  Yeah, because your driving a jet fighter with 4 wheels at 200 mph.
