My friend Dustin posted this on his forum at Mischief.tv, I thought it was just ridiculous and thought I would share. The video is of a safety car pulling out onto the course and ending up being struck by one of the race cars coming around the chicane.
I personally have some thought on who was to blame but for me it seems to rest on both the race driver and the safety car driver. First I blame the Safety Car driver because he jumped right out there onto the track and into the middle when he could have used the side lane to get going. I blame the race driver because well it was a full course caution, the flags were out and he still came through that chicane at a really high speed, high enough for the impact to separate the wheel from the car.
Here is the video:
Here is another video I found which shows more of the race leading up to the crash, you can see as they are coming around all of the corner workers have out the full course yellow flags, announcers are talking about the fact that this will bring out the safety car, so you can also relitively safely assume that the teams had radioed their drivers that the safety car would be coming out. Why would you then be going full out through a chicane?
Anyway here is the second video:
So who would you put to being at fault here?
