Dude who won celebrated by doing donuts and shit while his team were throwing champagne on him. And then FOX covers that and starts interviewing Hamlin about his win.

Good look for NASCAR that this is all they care about.

This strangely reminds me of Cars 1s ending. Minus the applause for the winner of course.

None of the things I'm seeing sound good, but let's not go headhunting. This is how this type of racing goes. Safety features weren't going to be enough one day. That was not the first car go to lose control even in this specific race. Hopefully they consider some changes.

This is normal procedure for any driver in a crash to get checked out at a hospital. It doesn't mean he was hurt bad.

I mean that shower of sparks probably melted him if the 200mph impact didnt kill him

Yah they normally announce if the driver is conscious after a wreck or a thumbs up. They havent said anything.

Someone said on Twitter that his helmet was broken and he has head trauma. The black screens def arent a good sign.

Yes I did. I have seen a lot of wrecks in Nascar races and some even worse than that.

They "invented" hiding bad things? There hasn't been a death in 20 years (hopefully not now) and serious injuries are few and far between. NASCAR is one of the safer racing leagues in the world.

Yes, brain cancer is technically worse than breast cancer. Not a good defense though.

First, these cars are safer then you'd think. Though shit does happen.

Second, let's be honest most of the people who watch NASCAR love the accidents, many will come out and say it.

Third, when in the fuck is this sport going to introduce some downforce in their cars. Driving these float machines at these speeds is just plain stupid.

Not a good sign if there is no news about him being ok. If he was alert wouldn't they have said it by now. They also told the media to leave to not see his body.

his head could easily still be traumatized, especially if that restraint thing in the headrest broke apart.

too much downforce makes the racing boring. Theyve purposely moved to less downforce over the last couple of years to increase the skill gap between drivers.

dont know why everyone acts like something has to change. Its racing at 200mph. Bad wrecks happen but drivers know the risk. The fact that there hasnt been a death in 20 years despite the number of bad wrecks is a testament to how well made these cars are. Obviously theres always room for improvement but at those speeds youre never going to completely eliminate the danger.

Seeing that NASCAR brings out the worst in its fans and the only reason it sells is the possibility of a crash (let's be honest who wants to watch a bunch of cars turn left for 3 hours), I don't see the benefit of why it should even exist.

Formula 1 and such are better because you don't have to go ridiculously fast and you have to slow down a lot. NASCAR was made to be the most high risk racing imaginable to create the potential of the biggest wrecks. It shouldn't exist, period.
