I guess hitting him once wasn't enough.
And you can see in one of those views that he clearly gets a good lick right on the RR wheel.

The first hit came from Piquet. That got the other car out of shape. Self inflicted.

Looks like Piquet went wide the previous corner, and overcorrected, going hard right into the other car who had the apex.

Yep, self inflicted.

Large heuvos belong to those who actually race...DEs are good enough for me...

Full cage and HANS is a must for me after what I've seen over 115 events and several 24 hr races!

Agreed. Watched that several times and "per PCA Club Racing Rules" (que laughter) it sure looked like the other car clearly had the corner.

That's going to be one hell of a 13/13.

He didn't come in after the first hit
