    Just about ten minutes ago it happened. With under 50 laps to go under a caution (safety car) JPM’s car broke, sending him into a spin and slamming into a jet dryer – bursting into flames and leaving a massive jet fuel fire on the track. Both Montoya and the jet dryer driver are OK and have been cleared by the medical teams, but the race is suspended with serious doubts that it will restart.

    It’s an incident I think the whole motorsports community needs to examine to try and learn something from it. It could’ve been a major tragedy but thankfully it appears we’ve avoided that.
