    This past weekend was a bizarre one for motorsports. It seemed that the various series all had similar incidents! I think this hit was worse than Heikki stuffing the McLaren in the tire wall. I've not heard or read of the speed at which Jamie Campbell-Walter hit the wall when he went straight and didn't negotiate the chicane - only adjective used was abate. Thankfully he walked away without serious injury. This is testament to the construction of these machines. This happened during qualifying, we were sitting in the stand right next to this.
