    He's exactly right, flipping and shedding parts is reducing the energy and thus speed of impact. Probably best case scenario for a brake failure if you don't have a huge amount of space up to a barrier, which he still had quite a bit of regardless. Scary stuff, glad he's alright.

      Unlike Joey Hand's infamous crash at the same track. Hand's car was doing ups and downs, bouncing every time it hit the grass infield as it slowed. Pagenaud stayed pretty much level, not up and down, and the tires scraped over it instead of digging in.

    Nice to see that the track was properly designed, with that much room for failures like this (barely touched the tyre wall), and also that the wheels stayed attached to the car like they are supposed to.

    I don't think I've EVER seen an IndyCar barrel roll like that! I've seen them go airborne but that looked like Ryan Newman's Daytona 2003 crash, I mean I remember a Ganassi car at Chicagoland in 2005 going airborne but no barrel rolls.

    • @DoctorShocktor
      @DoctorShocktor Год назад

      And you haven’t seen one here. A barrel roll is literally the shape of traveling inside a barrel. This car did longitudinal rolls or flips. Words actually have meanings, amazing I know!

    Good thing that the car also flipped on its side rather than tumbling and slamming on the nose and tail putting more strain on his spine. Im soo happy he's ok that was scary.

  • @goodshipkaraboudjan
    @goodshipkaraboudjan Год назад +3

    Great to see he is ok. He's not had a huge shunt in a long and successful career. MSR need to sort their house out, with their budget their cars should firstly not be getting brake failure and secondly perform much better. Also well done Indycar and Dallara, the cars are bulletproof and the Aeroscreen is world leading.

      They normally all stay attached. The one incident at Indy in twenty some years is an EXCEPTION, not something to “be considered” in other accidents.

    The worst wreck for a driver. Having no brakes has to be the scariest thing except for maybe a hung throttle. So glad he’s ok.
    I don’t know if they ever read comments but I would like to thank the safety crews for not only this wreck but every other across Motorsports

  • @Hollowsmith

    My god. The SPEED that vehicle went off course at was horrifying, heading towards a 90 degree wall, and frankly, parts of that wall were NOT well protected (notice the concrete barriers sticking out above the tires that could have been first impact for a flying car). All things considered, those barrel rolls were crucial to avoiding an absolutely devastating blunt force impact.

    • @DoctorShocktor
      @DoctorShocktor Год назад

      If they were “barrel rolls”, probably would have been worse. Thank goodness they were just simple rolls.
