Anyone watching? Audi just had a horrible crash. I think the driver is ok though. I think an AUdi prototype car made contact with a lower class car at full speed.

too quick to jump the gun. Driver could be messed up, but not dead. Safety in circuit racing has jumped 1000 times higher in the last 20 years, otherwise he would dead 100 percent. Mcnish had a nasty shunt earlier aswell, horrible day for Audi indeed. I am 100 percent sure the HANS device saved his life.

speedtv does stream it when their tv feed is showing nascar. Im sure there is many many streams considering most the world watches this race. There is a single global feed that many of the racing channels use but add their own commentators.
