Thanks Japanese Samurai.
Another case for a protective canopy - could only help.
That is a frightening accident, with awful results. Was his head injured when he hit the camera tower, how lucky was the camera man. Wheel entanglement?
The clown's on this forum that don't think racing is dangerous and in need of continuous work on safety need to take note.
Awful just awful, this is what I hate about racing!
