You're right. Ugh.

Nice to see both front brake cooling ducts remained intact and straight, though

Only 35 ft from Start/Finish, 47 ft from the entry of T11.

My data measured from the track shows that turn 11 is about 7 feet higher and turn 1 about 7 feet lower versus what is shown on the map.

Bent the steering wheel. Wow, I'm glad he's OK.

HANS

Perfect setup for thoracic aortic deceleration injury, though. Is there a SAFER barrier there, or just tires?

Love his tweet, BTW: "This ain't no country club."

In the end, elevation change doesn't count for much when the brakes fail...
