I was at this race. It has burned in my mind the accident. It was my first and my last Indycar race I did and will attend.

I fear Wilson was dead not long after that nose cone from Karam's car, hit his helmet.

He had the brakes locked so he had to be conscious at the barrier impact I would think.

RIP Justin Wilson

I subscribed to your channel

Almost looked like that nose-cone hit him straight in the head

One of the reasons why Indy Car stopped racing at Pocono

8 years on and Justin Wilson will be sadly missed by us all

Poor guy never saw it comming. Racing is deadly yet people continue to do it. Rest in peace Justin.

Need to just do road races these cars are just too unsafe for these high speed ovals

Well this should not be a dead accident when they had put a face protector on the car like formule 1 !!

0:22 you can actually hear when the piece smacks off his helmet

2015 car fixed with Polycarp?

Sage oh dear oh dear oh dear. What did you do.

I honestly don't see where he hits it on the close up replays. There are only 2 big pieces that come off and he doesn't hit them.

R.I.P Justin Wilson, suffered an severe head injury, in a coma, died the next day in the hospital

Great job guys !

Yellow n Red killed him. Nothing around and went into the wall

:22 you can actually hear the hit to his head. How sad

6:24 I’m pretty sure that the very moment the nose cone hit Justin. And you can hear it happen too. Start at 6:22

Motor racing is a waste of money and serves no purpose. It's also a waste of energy, oil and adds to the greenhouse gas emissions. People go to these events because it's fast, loud and dangerous but after all, spectators don't have to worry about the dangers. Leave that to the to the drivers to worry about! I can't see why anyone would want to go to an event like this knowing that a driver might get killed. It's a spectacle of danger that attracts the people and it's all about the money! Spectators

I think you can hear at 0:22 the nose cone hitting Justin in the head. You can kinda line it up with where Sage's car is when it happens live and the replay at 7:02.

Honestly it looks like more of these drivers die from debris contacting their head than the actual crashes. It’s unbelievable to survive a hard hit and die from debris.

Sage’s first time back at this track today xfinity since that race…RIP

his death is inspiring to me

Why don't they make these cars and F1 cars with closed cockpit? You have to protect the driver before anything else surely? If they have a closed cockpit with durable material, maybe such accidents would not kill the drivers.

I’d say this wasn’t a “huge crash” at all. Just a unfortunate debris landing.

The sound of the impact after the crash was haunting.

Sage Karam was in a interview earlier today with Speedsport, tomorrow is going to mark his first appearance at Pocono Raceway for the first time since this incident

I've never known Castroneves try and jump the start like he did here

Sad, freak accident. R.I.P. Justin

Halo would have saved him

Shocking...poor man...a split second....and its all over

Did it break his neck or was it just severe head trauma ?

Wasn't a huge crash at all just feak accident. TH-cam clickers baiters are the worst on youtube.

You can hear the impact just before it cuts to Chip.

Struck by debris and hit on the helmet. Google.

I’m not really a Superfan but I will say those guys (& gals) who do open-wheel racing are made of some tougher stuff

This better be the last fatal accident we have.

it is bitterly cruel and sickening that such a large car part that wood on any occasion have gone anywhere else had to this time come down on all places i.e a person's head...if it had come down moments before or moments after which is what should have happened i.e it should have done.... justin wilson wood still be here with sage karam(who as a result of this outcome)must have strongly considered retiring from motorsport.....all together.....

Just an awful situation. Justin passing gave life to others. Just so sad

U can see that piece of cone hit him in the helmet..i guess that killed him??

If I remember right, this accident was what convinced aj allmendinger to never return to indycar. Wilson was his friend

Insane speeds around those turns, talk about 'on the edge'. RIP

I covered auto racing for more than 25 years as a photographer and photographed many hundreds of crashes, so I have learned to see many details before and as the accidents happen and to see even more when reviewing still and video footage afterwards. It is interesting that Wilson's car never changed it's line until after safely getting past Karam's car, then Wilson's car makes a gradual left turn as the brakes are applied hard (note the skid marks and the smoking tires although the car is not sliding sideways.) His head does not drop forward until after he passes Karam's car. It appears he remained aware and functioning at least until just before he hit the inside wall. Even after being hit in the head, he may have been able to avoid hitting Karam or another car.

This was the first fatal wreck I had ever seen live, I have watched racing my whole life, mostly in the safety era. This race was crazy all day with massive wrecks thought the race that are overlooked due to this tragic wreck. Even though pocono was fun track for fans, I’m happy they took it if the schedule because It was way to dangerous. RIP Justin Wilson

When just went slump when he stopped I knew he most likely broke his neck.

You can hear a smack sound on the catch fence replay, that might be it 6:17

Fontana one week and Milwaukee the next. 2015 had a pretty cool schedule didn't it.

There's an overseas version of this they think karoom is Wilson they don't even show Wilsons car
