I was watching when Earnhardt crashed. It seemed like a small one and no harm but the color announcer who was a driver immediately said it was serious.
Of course he knew things I didn’t.
“I was watching when Earnhardt crashed. It seemed like a small one...”
My group was sitting just past the start-finish line, looking up at Turn 4 when Earnhardt hit the wall. It appeared from our angle that he just sort of kissed the wall. It wasn’t until we got to our rooms and saw the replay that we saw that he went straight in.
The LaJoie hit was brutal. Probably most damaging.
Hope Ryan pulls through. Don’t think he will race this season at all.
Just saw this for the first time.
Got a chill in my body.
