We cut to an absolutely smashed Shredded Wheat Ford Focus then most of the grid piled into it over the course of the next 30 seconds to a minute Replays! *Edit* :Fucking shot of the chicane trying to work out maybe Davenport lost his oil pan, that's it. |

Considering how long that incident seemed to last, I don't know why drivers were still coming around that quickly. |

I don't think this is time for the blame game, with that amount of Oil/water on the track, they probably had zero chance to do anything about it. Very reminiscent of the clio oil pile ups at Thruxton's chicane It seems at least 3 drivers are off to hospital, what an awful incident. |

Having been cut out of a race car myself once, the "good" news is that with any luck it's usually mostly precautionary. Davenport and Smith will hopefully be mostly ok, I doubt Taylor-Smith will be allowed to run tomorrow if he lost consciousness even for a moment. |

Dunno about BTCC but in Indycar you're sat out for a week if you lose consciousness. |

The left hand side of Jeff Smith's car must look as bad as Davenport's car. Terrible accident. |

That looked terrible. Hopefully all the drivers are ok, and that most of those cars can be repaired for tomorrow. At least two looked absolutely destroyed.
