Lam Pak, you're obviously quite passionate about this, but nothing is to be gained by throwing around blame. Particularly if there isn't actually anyone to blame.

Motorsport is dangerous. Everything that can be done is done to make it as safe as possible, but the simple fact of the matter is, sometimes things go wrong.

Drivers choose which series they race in. They know their cars and they know the risks. They always have the choice to move to a different racing class or simply walk away from the sport if they feel that it's not safe enough.

The only way to ensure you don't get hurt in motorsport is not to be there.

When something as terrible as this happens, the first impulse is always to find someone to blame, but there's nothing to indicate that there was any blatent negligence here. The drivers all knew their cars, knew what safety features were on those cars and chose to race in them with that full knowledge. They weren't lied to, no-one forced them into the car. Ultimately, it is always and only their decision whether or not it is safe for them to race.

It's a hard truth to deal with, particularly with events as tragic as this, but it doesn't change anything.
