Yeah, I saw that. Really hate that for them.
Decades ago when I volunteered as a race marshal we were told to talk in code over the radio if we were dealing with an obvious fatality.
This may have already been posted. It is a photo showing the black screens that were put around the car before he was pulled out.

Not sure what I think about that. Was there be more urgency than it appears to be on getting him out of car?
Just horrific! Sure praying he’s gonna be okay.
I meant was there more urgency than it appeared.
Jerks on Twitter are claiming they have inside info that he’s dead.
I’ve speculated that is the case, however there was also a tweet that said he was “awake and alert” so who knows?
He was sponsored by Koch Industries.......is that the Koch Brothers?
“...is that the Koch Brothers?..”

One of them.

Lots of mixed voices saying one thing or another....the fire inside ‘looked’ brutal...hopefuly he survived this terrible crash.
I thought maybe they had to be super careful moving him due to injury.
Mega prayers up for Newman!
There should have been an update by now.
not if he’s in surgery and it’s a tough go........
Yes...Ryan and his wife separated 4 days ago, he announced it on his twitter page.
