Looking at an ALMS drive for Andretti Green in the Acura LMP2/LMP1 cars if he does decide that his open wheel days are over (95% sure they are).

And another massive accident at Kansas. Just crossed the line at the end, didnt know the race was over at this point. Matsuura throws on the anchors, Dario runs into the back, flies over the top and just lands infront of the fence and hits the wall. Mess race by Dario, ending in a big accident.

Danica was horrificly dangerous today. Really needs a slap on the wrist.

sweet jaysus.

i just saw a flash of his first accident on the tv at work today, and wondered why they were showing it a week after it happened, then someone at the bar told me he had another one (the new accident then came on the screen on the ITV news).

and was that the brake light on the back of Matsura's car that came on for a split second just before impact?

I don't know what the light is. Might have been a generic caution light, as they come on on the cars when the caution is out, that might happen when the race is over.

Matsuura apologised for slowing down too soon and too quickly after the race. Dario apologised for not realising what was going on.

it looked like a lick of flame from the exhaust, which would be caused by lifting off the throttle making the exhaust burn the excess fuel.

Just been watching highlights of the race, Danica was SOOO close to hitting that truck, so lucky.

it could be flame but it very much looks like a light.
