great fan of the sport and its advances in safety for the drivers but would also like to commend Alex Premat for his efforts to try and get Courtney out of the car even that deserves a mention of great sportsmanship even tho he created the accident but hope Courtney gets well soon and has a good recovery
@@Lollie22 they are now. They weren't previously. Courtneys leg was broken. Chaz Mostert had a horror crash two years later. He's lucky he's got both legs
He was lucky, that could easily have been fatal. And where the fuck are the marshals? Why is the other driver having to drag the poor bastard out of the car?
I’m a cynical person. I’ve lost love for humanity… but seeing great sportsmanship and care for humans being shown by mr james here. Has restored my faith in humanity
literally 1 humane action amongst billions of selfish ones. this is great to see but humanity has been a lost cause for a long time. this restores nothing. for me anyway.
im surprised thats not a tarmac run off. I dont like seeing them but neither the Davison Whincup crash or this one would have happened cause the car's would maintain control
Its racing, if you dont want to crash, be an accountant. There has to be some incentive to stay on track. Im all for safety but white lines on a giant piece of tarmac isnt my idea of good viewing.
If you supply large amounts of run off it makes it very dangerous for motorbikes. As cars are much more protective of the drivers it makes sense to put big gravel traps on your high speed corners, if you're wanting to attract or maintain motorcycle racing at the circuit.
Great sportsmanship by Alex, fucking love it

He didnt really create the accident, he was a passenger when his tire blew
that impact in slow mo was just brutal
Oh
th-cam.com/video/sIwqG89fcvI/w-d-xo.html
yeah, when the car barely moves on an impact like that, you know all that energy has gone into the car and driver
"Still haven't heard a safety car"
'oh shit'
Another reminder that these guys put their lives on the line to do what they love. Mass respect brothers and sisters.
Extremely lucky he survived that hit. How he survived is a miracle.
No, it isn’t. He survived due to multiple advancements in car construction.
Courtney has a fractured tibia, so he's season is over. I wish him a fast recovery in time for next year.
That Toll racing Commodore looks fucking sexy. Even when its wrecked.
especially when it's wrecked
Took nearly a minute for the Safety and Medical cars to be deployed. Ridiculous response time. Not good race management by Tim Schenken.
It took Neil Crompton to mention that there hasn't been one.
Scariest crash yet.
If this had of been last years car the outcome would of been so much worse Good to see he only came out with soreness and not broken bones
has anyone got footage of Courtney's F1 crash at Monza?
man courtney was lucky not to be killed really!
Joel Delaney If this happened 10 years earlier, I'm doubtful Courtney would have been able to walk away (well, hobble/limp).
The cars are designed specifically for this sort of impact soo
Wouldn't have survived that in 'the good old days'.
Only survived due to the drivers seat being moved more to the centre of the car in 2013 and beyond. Had this of been in 2012 and he could have died

Zero Ninety well like you said ‘where are the marshals’? So Premat came to Courtney’s aid as his leg was trapped and obviously hurting.

@@sultanabran1 that’s nihilistic but thats a fair point
@@longthornhenderson331 haha i had to look up the definition of nihilistic. Happy new year
This was big
that look like mark porter fatal crash in bathurst 2006 race
Arief Raditya it does. RIP Mark. That also shows the safety of modern V8 Supercars
The commentators probably recognised the similarities in the scenario and thought the worst. Rest in peace, Mark.
