I’m not going to say anyone definitely “did” this or that intentionally, and am speculating based upon personal opinion only. But, to me there is the appearance of something along those lines.

You put it better than did I; of course it is only my personal opinion looking at the video...who knows what is going through someone’s head at the time. The car in front of him was obviously trying to get as far down on the track as possible to avoid both the wrecked car and the driver. I’m sure there are hours and hours of video of him racing under caution during Nascar that will be hauled out for a potential upcoming behemoth of a lawsuit.

My main issue is (still) wondering WHY he would put himself into such a position in the first place. As I said earlier in the thread...I’m from Iowa where he suffered a major injury running a sprint car race in Knoxville.

Until this happened, I hadn’t really thought about the liability of a “professional” race car driver getting involved in something like this. Even if he had flipped his car into the stands and killed someone...he is a huge target given his net worth. The whole thing just seems a bit imprudent and odd to me.
