Sad that this is the major news story from the race. At least it was the last race ABC will make us suffer through.

Excerpt from article:
In a statement, Chevrolet said, "It is unfortunate that this incident happened. Many factors contributed, including weather and track conditions. The car’s safety systems performed as expected."

Soooo, what Chevrolet is saying is that the weather and track conditions of the "streets" of Belle Isle were unfavorable for their new high performance "street" car, yet favorable for Indy race cars to race on the "streets" of Belle Isle.

I'm going with 100% driver error.

He’s an exec, gotta cover his ass...a dumbass

Even with a great car, bad things happen when you put a moron behind the wheel.

 

[CobraBob]

I literally just read about that on Fox News. He simply lost it in the turn. Hard to tell if it was anything other than driver error. The track looked fine.

Never lifted lol

He definitely had a bad time

 

[bigdave03svt]

He matted it leaving the turn and lost it when the car came over that bump and got light. I'm sure he had the nannies off, or the car would've straightened itself right back up. These cars are hard to wreck with the systems on.

Happened right underneath the banner too..LOL..that sucks, and damn that was a hard hit

 

[zeus201]

Watched it live yesterday...I lol'd!

Thankfully, yes. I hope to never hear Eddie Cheever or Scott Goodyear calling a race of any kind again.

I was there over the weekend, I actually was by the turn that happened on but was an hour to early. We had already moved.
