Halo doing it's job yet again, drivers seem ok, but at least one had to go to the hospital due to hitting his head and later was cleared of serious injury. Hopefully nothing major.

Yikes that's a scary crash. Spinning 180 degrees into the whole field like that could've ended really bad

Wow, it's amazing what the cars let you walk away from these days. Some engineers deserve a pat on the back for that.

That was quite the crash. Glad everyone is ok.

I think anyone who’s sim raced has had a moment like that. Once it snaps back in the other direction you know it’s unrecoverable.

Hole Smokes. Initially I thought bad things were gonna happen when the car stalled on the grid, but then I wasn't quite expecting how spectacular? (doesn't seem like the right word for it) the actual crash was.
