That was horrifying to watch. He should buy a lottery ticket.

I was glad to see the driver walk away from that one.

Crap!

(Which is probably what the corner marshall at the end of the catch fence was thinking... or doing)

Scary.

Note the dingdong who was doing all the blocking HAD NO REAR WING. He should have just gotten off line or pulled into the pits!

Anyone else see the bouncing tire hit not one but two cars in the chicane too. As pointed out in another spot, much scarier IMO.

+1 and since he was too bumbass to do so, where was the black flag? Im not sure I even saw any blue flags?

Well, only good thing is to know that that guy will never be in F1, most of the times, it's these kind if things that big bosses look for.
It's consistency, feedback and smartness much more than one fast lap.

The Turd Suranovich was excluded from the results of the race and repeatedly ignored the corner workers Waving the black and orange flag telling him to pit because his car was dangerous.

If it were me I would take this turd and toss him from the Series. This was for 11th place, not the lead.

If it was my kid who was wrecked I would introduce the turd to Mr. Tire iron. Racing is tough but when it is for 11th place that the crap to happen it is stupid.

Even if it were for the lead, where do you think you're going without a rear wing? Serious. Even if everyone were going 5 mph behind you, you still have to go into the pits and a rear wing is not an easy change like a front wing. There should be a flag with "YOUR RACE IS DONE. GET OUT OF THE WAY".

I would suspend this guy for a few races and make him take his race license test again. Unacceptable behavior.

I agree with the posts above & hope to never see this a-hole racing again. But I'm afraid that in today's world of paying drivers, sanctioning bodies seem to be reluctant to hand out appropriately severe punishments to the uber rich (Grand Am).
