2001 Daytona 500 - The Big One Interviews

This video starts out with a full lap of Dale Jarrett's onboard leading up to and through the wreck. Under the red flag several drivers and Joe Gibbs are interviewed. I figured i would post this part of the coverage since the wreck itself and replays were already posted by MayoNeverDies.
Here is a list of the drivers involved.
01-Jason Leffler
1-Steve Park
2-Rusty Wallace
4-Robby Gordon
5-Terry Labonte
6-Mark Martin
18-Bobby Labonte
20-Tony Stewart
21-Elliot Sadler
22-Ward Burton
24-Jeff Gordon
25-Jerry Nadeau
27-Kenny Wallace
43-John Andretti
44-Buckshot Jones

You guys, I didnt write that shit.

If you look at my channel, Im a HUGE NASCAR fan.

I have no clue who's been getting on here, or why, but I can assure you it wasnt me.

RIP Dale Earnhardt.

@pwnzor3000 lol after i replied to your comment i went to your channel and seen your dp was jr and stuff, i figured someone else may have said that, i recognized your channel name too so it was peculiar to see lol. i recommend changing your password if thats a possible problem. make sure to sign out too when you leave your computer.

i think this is the start of stewart's shoulder injuries. in the then busch series when he flipped @ tallagega, cup and busch @ lowes the same weekend crashed he was transported to a local hospital for shoulder pain. there is another one but i cant thin of it.

[jrfan07]

he had a big IRL crash at las vegas in 1996 too

[theoriginalshew]

6:20, when he is praising NASCAR about how safe the car is, and he says its the safest car in the world at that time. it's a black #3 GM Goodwrench car. he says its the safest car in the world at that time. and just a couple of hours later the driver of that car would die of a simple hit into the wall. thats both a sad kind of IRONIC and creepy.

[88XxStevenxX88]

Its kind of sad dale died that day, i was only 7 watching this live on TV, this was such a scary race

[Rusty2FTW]

add Ron Hornaday to the list because he had right front side damage

[flubber342]

@asman9 I wish that every time a driver has been killed, that his car was safe

[980696]

@10ace11 shit i know....the safety and head restraints.......

[99boyz]

@theoriginalshew Cuase dale drove Like a Moron

[wa5519]

I just wonder how the FOX guys didn't go on about Robby - Seeing it the first time I would've been most concerned about him - Tony's car could've beheaded Robby

[10ace11]

Ohh the irony, Hammond standing next to a #3 car saying that these cars were the safest in the world.

[MrBrennan008]

That was Tonys near fatal crash and Dale Sr.s fatal crash the same day

[bobolob]

@C0LL1N I agree. Very Ironic that they use the #3 as the cutaway car touting safety. It didn't take long for them to totally debunk what they thought safe meant.

[bobolob]

Was there ever a time Mark Martin actually looked young?

[SaintBEEP]

@theoriginalshew even more ironic is that Dale Sr. said during the red flag for this accident that "If they don't change the way we race here, someone is going to get killed"
