Elliot is a twat. Hitting McDowall again coming off pitroad for something that was in no way his fault.

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.

Poor Danica. Two consecutive weeks ending in a nasty hit.

Almirola came steaming in there.

Say what you must about Danica, but she's tough as goddamn nails.

Later replays show him loose all the way into it. He was just trying to hang on.

They're cutting the roof off Almirola's car. He might be hurt.

The way the 43 hit the 22 and 10 was simultaneous. I think that must be why he's banged up. All his energy was used up in a single imact, essentially.

Impact of the car coming down. The vertical impact transfered through the chassis into the drivers seat. I bet lower back injury.

That had to he a RF disc failure for Logano. That's the side that had the debris, and it makes sense that the car would lurch left in that event.

Twitter reports are saying that they are worried about a possible back injury for Almirola. It appears that he was sliding in the oil from the Logano and Danica crash and he was just along for the ride.

Seems like it's been a long time since we've seen a NASCAR driver have to be extracted like this.

Can't remember anyone off the top of my head since McClure at Talladega.

Man, that was a brutal crash. I hope Almirola isn't seriously injured.

There's a video on the NASCAR Facebook page incidentally.
