Default Bad Crash

I always thought the guy didn't survive. But now this I just found shows the worst off guy surviving.

I wonder if that wing that lands under the marshalls and officials tower is still useable?

Amazing they both survived. How the hell do you run a race when you can't see 2 feet in front of you? What good is it to wave the yellow flag if no one can see it?

remind me never to race in japan. That is the slowest response to an accident i have ever seen. Plus, they could care less about the Ferrari guy on the floor.

Damn Asian drivers! (My ex always loved that joke)

But seriously, what bad luck, the second car was like a heat seeking missile!

Glad the second driver survived. He must have woke up and thought he was blind.

Ed, I got dibs on those wheels!

I remember seeing that a long time ago but never saw the ending... I would not have ever imagined anyone would have got out of that Ferrari breathing.

I agree with the comments above. Whose ego made the decsion to run the race in that weather?

Where were the fire extinguishers?

Why did they allow the Ferreri driver to even stand up. No one tended to him.

It is amazing they required the drivers to wear suits and helmets.

Yeah, I like how the worker just patted him on the helmet "you'll be all right", and then the poor guy falls over backwards, crikey!

Then they all throw the guy in a van like a sack of potatoes.

The video should have followed the van driver as he drove out for sushi.
