  • they should of never let him back out. i still think the fire contributed to his wreck, and he missed the rest of the season with a broken back.

  • so milka duno cant stay on the lead lap on a street course yet vitor has a fire and still maneges to stay on the lead lap

  • OMG that will shake the heck out of me!! 150mph ++

  • Is the whole race on here?

  • Look at Nelson Pique in 1992, same angle, same impact, but 10mph slower. Amazing how the safer barrier saved his life so obviously this time out. WTG IRL And the Speedway in the safer barrier development.
