    Yeah, I saw it. I knew it wasnt going to be good when you could see that the Headrest's had been torn right of the seats. Thats a damn shame, I did not watch it long enough to hear the condition of the drivers.

    I saw that on saturday morning! Very sad, it didnt look that bad but you can imagine what it would be like to get ripped out of that thing at high speeds.

    I was surprised they realy didnt say much about the situation on the TV show. At the very end they said that sadly one of the 2 drivers died in the accident and he would be missed. That was it. I dont even know when it actually happened since it was a prerecorded show.
