Yeouch. Glad no one was hurt. Hard to see the incident in the rearview view but he got smacked.

Remids me of my daily commute

that dive bomb move was made by THE RED BARON
Funny haw some names fit the driver.
the track was so wet, there was no way he was going to hold it in the corner.
one driver was hurt, got a side impact & hit his head on the cage he was ouy cold for 1- 2 minuts. but was relesed from hospital the next day.

Yeah using the right impact-absorbing padding on hard bits is a Good Thing...
