There is a thread running over on Piston heads at the moment:

Thoughts are with the TVR driver Andy Neats and his family, looked like a very nasty shunt.

It was nasty, Andy is very lucky the survival cells in race cars are so good and the marshals did a great job, earned every penny in that instance.

For the rest of the race, it was thankfully incident free, 2 more SC's to recover debris on the track. Otherwise a good day's racing
Wooosh!!!!

It certainly was! we were sitting just to the right of the start finish line & saw it all happen.
