That fence will need a lot of work.

RHR's roll bar got sheared off. Looked like it was bodywork and camera mount. The hoop looked intact. Knocked the camera right off. The hoop is still there.

I'm praying for Robert Wickens right now.
I would have backed off at the tunnel turn and it's a long race.
That turn can't hold two cars for a fast turn.

Classy interview by RHR there. He should give his boss a few pointers.

Audio problems on the Sato interview. Dixon got lucky.

I am certain Wickens lost consciousness - hopefully that is all.

The only thing I can think of, is that the track is rural, so they will fly him rather that drive, just to save time.

Another sight I do not like to see: A medical helicopter. There is no decent medical facility within a short drive from Long Pond.

Didn't look like his head got to the fence or cables, just the nose and rear end

That is 40 miles as the crow flies - cows laid out the roads in the area not crows, probably drunk cows at that and they didn't lay out anything in a straight line.
