Looks like he hit the underside, which split whatever caused the fire, then bumped the car back down to finish it off.

No one can accuse NASCAR of being the only series that over-plays replays of its wrecks out of context for new viewers that have just tuned in :whistling:

How did that 2nd car end up piling in?

Was he just taken aback by a car flipping in front of him and forgot to brake?


Saw a car flipping with dust and junk flying all over the place and hit the brakes too hard would be my guess. Locked the fronts and it just plowed off.

Posted on the iRacing forum... 53 seconds from the time the Aston hit the barrier until the fire extinguishers were deployed on the fire... That seems too long but I'm not sure where the safety vehicles are positioned. It appears they had to be rolling when the track was barely yellow so I guess that's not too bad. Glad the drivers are basically OK.

Well not so big actually. That's a tiny bump in terms of crashing at The Kink.
