Alright when was that again.....?

[muzikant]

Looks like Francois Cevert on Watkins terrible

 

[Lesley Buurlage]

Holy moly that haas is halfway THROUGH the barrier, if a broken foot is the only injury romain has after that it will be a miracle. What a crash..

 

[Appie Kuipers]

THANK GOD HE SERVIVED

 

[Jim Layee]

The race should be cancelled as it could happen in the same place.

Maybe now the sprinkler guys and halo haters will chill out...thank God Romain survived that...he'd be a dead man without that halo, no doubt about it.

 

[Kenny Paton]

As someone who worked most of his life for large corporations you would be surprised how many decisions don't make sense business-wise (a lot). Let's outsource our production, whoopsie, turns out the production process was to complex to outsource. Ah nevermind. We need this million-dollar software - it's the future of our business. Gets used once.

Amen to that brother

 

[Copef1]

Wow, hard to believe in this day and age that that kind of accident can still happen.

I gotta admit after seeing the replay and the debris, had a tear in my eye seeing RG being carried away by the med team. Great job HALO and Med team and the angels watching over him.

True but motorsport is always dangerous!

 

[LeSunTzu]

I guess the halo saved Romain's life. Scariest crash in years.

 

[BP]

True but motorsport is always dangerous!

I know, no argument here...but if you can reduce some of the danger, it is worth pursuing.

 

[Kimirai]

My God how can he be alive and practically unharmed, thankfully

 

[Jim Layee]

It's awful to see how long he was in the fireball

 

[Bruce Banner]

Massive props to the medical guy who went to the flaming barrier and helped pull Romain over it .

 

[daveclifton]

My God how can he be alive and practically unharmed, thankfully

We don't know his injuries yet, let's hope he is ok.

 

[snyperal]

That was something else. Crikey.

 

[daveclifton]

Scariest crash I think I've ever seen that didn't end in a fatality. How he got out of that is just incredible to me. I hope he is ok.

The race should be cancelled as it could happen in the same place.

Then all races must be canceled from now? Because this can happen on all tracks with paved runoff areas and solid guard rails, specially when the driver lost control off the car and nothing slows down the car. I think it’s better to go back to more sand traps it’s safer and racing will be better. That’s my opinion

 

[daveclifton]

I think it should be cancelled too, the drivers must be really shaken up. It probably can't be cancelled, with a second race there next week.

I wonder will some drop out. That has happened before.

 

[Bruce Banner]

So far it seems as though he's probably got a few burns to his hands and feet and possibly a broken rib / s .
