2017 Indy 500 Crash

Post by DarcShadow » Thu Jun 01, 2017 7:14 am

I know most of you don't care about the Indy car series, and I only ever watch the two at Indy but this was the worst crash I think I've ever seen. They had to red flag the race to clean up the mess. The level of safety built into the cars and the track is amazing, and the quick response of the safety crew is equally impressive, they were on scene almost before the cars even stopped sliding.

And they both got out of the car under their own power and walked away.

During qualifying Sebastien Bourdais hit the wall head on at about 231 and survived although he did fracture his pelvis and had to have surgery but he plans to be back in the car for the final race of the season.
