Looks to me like a piece of suspension broke and he had zero steering
control... right into the Pits Straight wall at the end... I've never seen
a car go flying into a straights wall so fast... freak accident.
Interesting but if they built the crash barrier about 20 meters closer to
the track, or if it was gravel there instead of grass, he probably would
have survived.
Terrible terrible.
