A bit higher and that thing would have gone into the dirt bank, and fence, and crowd |

Whoa! Some air there. Remind me of Thierry Tassin's big stunt at the 1982 F2 race when he had some air and ended up resting on the barriers. |

Fuck. That was made worse by the fact it tried taking off and the front of the car was in the air when it hit the tyres. Lucky escape. |

Scary one.  Tyrewall didn't really help there. Looked more like a hill climb crash (which it is).

Wow that was much worse than I expected from the tv coverage. So lucky it didn't go into the marshals post. |

Don't forget the fans, I've stood there a dozen times, and if that car would have gone a bit higher it would have been in the fence with fans right behind... |

And as expected, it looks like they will add another fence to that area. http://www.speedactiontv.be/PA_Thibaut_ ... 908-1.aspx Furthermore, track organisers are fed up with cars exceeding track limits. - "sleeping policemen" in Eau Rouge and Blanchimont - Grass instead of astroturf in Blanchimont |

Glad the Blanchimont astro turf is going, there's been some big shunts from drivers keeping their foot in on that astro turf. |

Basically the guy (Spa-Francorchamp's circuit chief) is also saying the asphalted runoffs have caused drivers to think they have way more track to use, causing them to go over the limit. Well, well, well. |
