I know a screengrab and Youtube video have been posted but perhaps this screengrab gives the best representation of distance:look at the backhoe's arm, it's well over the fence - 1.5m maybe 2m?  Also, in the original broadcast that Speed tv made the highlight clip from you could see that the whole area behind the barrier is actually raised up - the trees are at track level but the ground quickly drops away. I looked on google maps to see how high it was as on the broadcast, I saw a garbage truck drive under the track. Look:  He hit the 1st the tree - look how close that is to the bridge! There is an additional fence there but I doubt it's stronger than the tree. That whole area should be better protected. |

Just noticed my live timing link that the #95 Aston Martin was retired with Simonsen's name in it then it was changed to Nygaarn (sp?) and now the name is blank. |

That was mentioned previously and it's stupid and disrespectful for the officials to do that. It shouldn't change unless a driver plugs in (as they do), and it should only ever be manually corrected if a driver forgets to plug in. That didn't happen here!

Davidson recently took over the #8. Bergmeister has completed his first fuel run in the #91. He's been setting really good times towards the end of his run. |
