Looks like it stood up well if it hit the wall at 140mph.

Defo would have died if the cage hadent been in.

Tyres look a bit on the slick side of things

"What the fook were you doing"

That will go down well on a local website

Looks like the bloke driving the Evo was at fault.

Isn't the White(camera car) in front and entitled to take the racing line and shut the door? also looks like there is contact before he gets to the apex of the corner.

Like people said he could have yeilded to avoid the inncident but like the comments say on youTube, the race officals said the following car was at fault.

End of the day both drivers were ok which is the main thing.
