"ok", I suppose bruises or fractures might still be a possibility.


Yeah "ok" means to me he has none very serious injuries.

Time to retire Dario, you've been up in the air way more than any driver ever should be.

The odd thing about the aftermath of that crash is how low Dario appears to be in the car.. his helmet is sitting an inch lower than his normal seating position..

They won't say anything.
What can they say? "oh btw 3 posts and a 20 foot long piece of steel mesh landed in the grandstand, but we dunno if it hurt anyone?"

Just seen in the replay again, Viso fired a tyre into the Shell bridge which ricochets into the crowd.

Do those rear guards have any effect? Looks like he was launched by wheel to wheel contact.

Looks like it might have just dropped near the bridge. No stands at that exact location anyways.

It was obvious to me that they serve no purpose after JR was able to fly up over Power at 40mph some races back........

They should seriously reevaluate having grandstands at that high speed of a section.
