That looks like a big impact. Race probably finishing under caution.

Argh, it's a shame, I thought only the TC's were going next weekend ? If the GTs do go, then I can understand.

BTW, hi there :p

Eyewitness reports indicate that Palmer’s car catapulted over the Aston Martin upon impact and flew into the air before coming to rest in a wooded area, past several tire barriers.

The cause of the accident is unknown, although de la Torre’s car had stopped in the runoff area prior to Palmer’s arrival, at nearly full speed.


ugh...police at the scene now. Doesnt sound good at all.

"He has sustained a head injury and is being closely monitored after treatment by specialists."

http://www.dailysportscar.com/2016/05/2 ... almer.html

Either "simple" hard concussion or that and he had a treatment aka surgery.
