Maylander put the Safety Car into the Wall
(lemmy.world)
At least the safety car made it first to the scene.
But, the medical car had to pick them up. Everybody's OK
Do you mean Mayländer
Also what is even happening here
The safety car usually does some test runs on the thursdays, Mayländer must have crashed for once.
Yes, fixed it. Don't know what happened.
That doesn't look very safe
What is this video feed? Is it a test ahead of the race week-end that's broadcast on track?
Long ago, Bernie put together F1's own TV production unit. This is the raw feed. Networks will use this feed for all their productions.
As part of the regular preparation ahead of an F1 weekend, the safety car completes multiple systems checks and fast laps to ensure everything is ready for the weekend.
Looks like he wanted to put the car sideways as a last attempt to reduce speed, same as when initiating a drift.
You are at full speed coming into Parabolica, which in that thing is over 120mph. Hit the brakes. No brakes! Oh shit! Now, do what you can to take speed off the car. Maylander is a pro.
Oof doesn't AMR usually sell that car after the season? Rip. Glad maylander is ok.
Pifffffff.....it will buff out
From the video it looked like the driver was trying to kick the rear out to drift or something. Why? I know performance car steering is very tight and looks different, but the actions looked intentional.
I am not a pro driver. I don't know shit.
