Big crash for the #17 SMP

SC in the final hour, if the other Toyota catches up and pass Alonso it'll be a bummer for him

Quite a lot of damage to the car but none to the tyre barrier, strangely

Game on. Get him Mike.

Yeah, I know he's mad and I don't care. I do not care. I did not care then. I do not care now. I'm here to race him.

no footage of the crash yet, that might've been a tast crash

Various people at the track are saying it flew

Bound to be fan footage right?

What a pass by Pla at Eau Rouge!

what I find it funny is that generally Alonso impose himself in the teams he drive, and that victory could put him into this position

so is likely that he could set a bad mood in the team if the team doesn't favour him?

Not really sure why Conway hasn't been given what seems like a pretty clear cut penalty

looks like Toyota pretty much showed who they want to win

Astons really going at it

That's going to be investigated.

Team Alonso wins

and yet showing issues, those Toyotas can't make race 6 hours without breaking something

Can confirm that, I saw it happen myself. He was following a GT car through Eau Rouge, possibly the Ferrari that stopped on the Kemmel straight. Did they hit? I don't know. But I saw the proto lift in the air at the top of the hill and do a complete flip. Then it disappeared out of my sight.

I ran to a big screen but no replays.

Can confirm. Catchfence was also damaged

so it was a great wreck indeed, sportscar racing always delivers

I'm guessing Hindy would have been making cynical comments about Alonso and F1 during the entire race?

What could happen: WEC fans rejoice at the extra attention Alonso brings to their series (despite it being a bit of a papering over the problems the series has during a bit of a typical downturn for Sportscar racing atm) and try to welcome the curious new Alonso fans to their fold

What is actually happening (based on social media, RLM and Reddit): Sportscar fans looking down on F1 fans who have taken their time to come to their sport, make sniffy comments about the length/conservation/amount of racing In F1 and chide New fans for not knowing the differences between the two sports

Such is life, everywhere I guess. Needlessly competitive when we could all get along *shrug*

And it seems at the end of the race, the Monza cameraman made a new friend, the Spa cameraman. A guy who is on a pee break when the big incident happens
Pity the spa cameraman and how bad he's feeling tonight
