I had exactly the same reaction when watching it live. And I also remember the color commentator.....Darrell Waltrip, I think......being very somber right from the first picture.

Yes, it was Waltrip. He was torn up because his brother won the race but he was still fearful for Earnhardt.

The NASCAR experts can correct me, as that’s all from memory.

I didn't give the accident a lot of thought until Waltrip quietly said "I hope Dale is alright." Until then, I hadn't appreciated how serious the accident truly was. It was evident that he knew that something bad had happened.
