Personally I think he'd have been delighted to be awake and alert. I was unaware that Franchitti was airlifted to hospital. Is that true? All I saw was him leaving in an ambulance. |

Further on in the article: Quote: Debris from the crash also flew over the top of the safety fencing, injury some spectators. Good going, that paper |

..and there lies the problem that often happens in more tragic events, not many work on the theory that just because it's not expected to happen, doesn't mean it cannot happen. |

dr dog wrote: ESPN's Sportscenter actually led off with the Indy race. Their highlights of the race included a 1.5 second clip of Dario prerace and then they immediately cut to the crash. I don't even think they mentioned who won. Thank you, standard sports media, for guaranteeing that the only time I see spoilers for an Indycar race I DVR is when there's a massive wreck.
