Horrible tragedy, totally preventable. I've seen it many times, guys get out and throw their helmet at the guy who put them out or point fingers etc. Why didn't Tony see him? Who knows, probably looking at the car against the wall then saw something in his periferial view and looked back to the track, twisted the wheel but was too late.

Hate seeing stuff like that happen, 17, full of testosterone, jumping out and yelling at a Champion like that? He almost got hit by the two cars before Tony. Maybe he thought he'd make him stop and stare him down? Who knows, but it was a fail on his part.

Nobody, I mean, NOBODY would purposely hit a driver with their car like that, especially a professional driver who does it for a living.

Just bad all around.
