Yes, it is quite absurd how many incidents FOM are missing with their trackside cameras.

very violent the way it starts, but the angle of impact makes it look like a quite minor crash.

But when I read that Kimi had chrashed very hard on a website today, I thought it was going to be a little bit more spectacular...

that place of the track should always be kept in view for a crash. Obviously it's where the walls are closest and where the little snap left may have quite substantial consequences (like Petrov in 10 and Kimi today).

So the final corner at Korea is allowed to have a barrier right next to it, but Mexico has to be raped to compensate for a lack of run off at its final corner?

I believe it's different because the final corner is an acceleration zone.

Entering the corner much slower and accelerating through it at a relatively easy pace. Mexico you approach the corner at basically 180mph, if not higher and enter a heavy braking zone before turning into it. With a sharper corner the impact would be less shallow as well.

I think Lewis may have read Gangnam style wrongly and took it for gang-man style
