What's the saying? There's two types of drivers at Indy, those who have crashed, and those who will.
Just like in motorcycles, Those who have gone down and those who are gonna go down"
I think the saying for Indy is “those who have hit the wall, and those who are gonna hit the wall”
Not bad for such a hard hit thought it'd been more balled up
@@saltybildo9448"Balled up" words reminiscent of many wrecks and tragedies here. Savage of course. Sneva, pat Bedard, reggazoni. Even Dixon a few yrs back during the race
All racing
And now Linus is officially an Indycar driver. Gotta get that first crash at IMS out of the way.
Despite the car sliding, he did quite a good job of controlling the car. Glad he did not have a heavy hit to the inside wall.
exactly the commentators last words
Hats off for the SAFER barrier mitigating the impact force. My mind goes back to 1982 and the Gordon Smyley crash.
Yikes I know about that crash I looked up the pictures of that crash wanting to know more about it and yeah glad we don't have things like that crash now or one slike salt Walther or Swede savage (both in 73)
Smiley's crash is still by far the worst I ever saw at Indy, it was horrible.
@@tbh791 agreed the only worse ones are ejections or ones like Lorenzo bandini at Monaco in 67 or the 64 crash at Indy or McDonald and Sachs
Bill Bukovich, 1955(during the race). And that Turn 2 crash during practice involving Scott Brayton. When this man was taking his time getting out of the machine, with all that safety crew around him blocking the view, it made me nervous.
I was there that day with my girlfriend and we knew he was dead the car totally disintegrated that is the worst racing accident in the history of Motorsports I believe and I seen a lot of people get killed at the speedway and a lot of bad accidents but that's the worst accident in racing history I believe the whole car exploded around him
That ride down the straight made me anxious, you never know if it's going to hook up and send it head on into the inside wall.
As a journalist said here: "We realize how fast those cars are when they crash". Impressive the speed when he was going down.
Yeah like stingray at Texas or something
The down rear tire kept that from happening as every time the car touched back down, it drove the car straight into the infield. Of course, it also made his front brakes worthless, but he was scrubbing enough speed.
The sigh or relief at 3:15. Glad he's okay did a good job avoiding a hard second contact.
He did a pretty good job keeping it out of the inside wall!
Nice that we see something of indy here in Europe in youtube nowadays - thanks to active youtube channels. Back in 1990's, when the channels made their everything for indy 500 not to be seen in Europe, they uninamously secured, that the sport lost even the last interest of itself in here - just in the last few years I (and thousands of other Europeans) got to see those races, we wanted to see, Rick Mears, Emmo, Al jr and others win...
Had they provided global TV-coverage of indy 500, it would be hugely bigger than it is now - not just the driving circle for retired F1-drivers or rising stars going upwards at it's best.
This crash provides a good visual into just how fast these cars are going and how much kinetic energy needs to be used up before he comes to a stop. Glad he's okay. IMS is unforgiving.
Car took it quite well, and he hit in best place possible to minimize driver injury. Slow it WAY down and watch.
I’m always so appreciative of the delay of replays until we know the driver is ok its so respectful, nothing else is as important as their safety
Plus, it helps the station’s profits because sponsors don’t want to show a death
Slapping the wall flat, either side, front or back, flush, could have been awful. He dissipated most energy possible in such a situation. Also he was on brakes, prior, scrubbing speed off. Wheel looks almost true also, only the tire came off. Amazing high-speed, into a corner, drove it so well.
There's no "good" crashes at Indy,,,, but at least the front tires didn't bite. (Couldn't see if he turned into the slide or not)). Because that's sending you into the wall front end first. Sorry to see the car torn up, glad he got out and seemed to be okay.
👍👍
Good to see him well. Hang in there.
infamous turn 2 at indy strikes again yikes 😮🔥🔥
Shame as he was flying but he learned the hard way the speedway bites back.
Its was a very good "save" luckily the car didn't over rotate and when head front to the wall.
Best commentator in all of sport. How can a practice call give me chills.
Because pointless screaming must give you the chills
“Pointless”
Great ! Great JOB DRIVING !,
I remember Rick Mears practice/qualifying accident in the same exact location. Mears ended up on his side and spun like a top for several hundred feet. I believe Mears got a broken wrist for his adventure but was able to get into the race.
Welcome to Indy, Linus. You're a veteran now!! 🇸🇪
Not even close, he hasn't even driven 6 inches of qualifying or the race. That's a rookie.
@@sdsmt99 Thanks for the clarification... but i follow Linus already since his time in IndyNXT so i know who he is 😉
@@deepinthewoods8078do you know he's not a veteran?
@@sdsmt99 Of course i know that. Despite his podium at Barber and a handful of very promising races in the second half of 2023, he's still a rookie at the speedway ...
@@deepinthewoods8078you said he's a veteran
The car was trying to take off. Lucky guy.
sweet, thanks for sharing awesome slappage
Thank goodness he's alright!
You either hit the wall or you're gonna hit the wall
Relatively soft contact. Best way to hit the wall.
won't that be a stat for the future of Indy going forward, will ? there be a May without a practice crash and only one minor on race day ?
The treacherous Turn 2 is back at it again
Boss Man I crashed my racer so get your checkbook out!
Glad hes ok! That's all that matters
So Ericson says "Crash? Hold my beer."
Did the throttle stick? Looked like the car didn't want to slow down after impact.
Calamity Corner
The rear right was already coming off the rim before he hit the wall.
He hit the curb on his own and lost it. The tire was just massively flexing and oscillating
Already?
Please tell me Leigh Diffey will not be announcing the race.
Please tell me you'll stop whining about him if he doesn't...
Soon when NBC lose indycar
I second that sentiment…..horrible
He won't be announcing it, HE'LL BE SCREAMING IT, along with the clown prince of Canada and the never has been.
I don't like the way the car whiplashed there back into from the contact with the rear to the front contact.
There's no saving one at these speeds, when it lets go, brace yourself and hope it's a glancing blow.
what a practice 2 big crashes 😬😬
2' s been a problem last several yrs
Similar wrecks. Back to Boudais' . A more fortunate angle...but exact same spot
It's a 25% probability.
How's Larson doing
So far so good. He seems to be in the top half during practice. It won't be until Friday when they up the boost for quali that we'll know for certain.
Didn't hit too hard and it is team Ganassi so they have plenty of parts and resources.
Nothing to be ashamed of
Illegal right hand turn, no prior signal.
Too much of a gap for the safety crew to get there.
Walls will chew u up
Diffey gets way too excited during crashes, calm down dude.
Diffey is annoying AF
Track doesn't care if your from MMA
Too much weight jacker and overdrive the corner
We're here for the crashes.😮😅🎉😂
Not sure why I even care about this highlight when in fact Indycar has done everything they can to make it difficult to follow the sport. Obscure TV channels and a pay-window at Peacock as if we're watching free TV these days. The website is a complete joke. Its a real shame what this has become. Please by all means dont take my word for it ask Michael Andretti as he says the same thing about the TV package.
Just sign up for peacock it’s only 5.99 a month.
But at least they show the extended highlights which is why I'm even know and care about indycar. Had they had a good viewing option here in europe I would have watched the whole race. Only option is viaplay at like 90€ a month, rediculus.
Even as a lifelong fan of Indycar, I only watch the races televised on network television. As much as I love this series, I don't want yet another streaming service, so I skip those races and watch the highlights on TH-cam. It's unfortunate, but that's the world we live in now.
Going for the younger demographics is very hard. And the demos b4 that were born into NASCAR only. As exciting as this sport is and I'm. A fan since 1973....still needs to improve the product, hate to say. As indicative of the strange and obscure sponsorships, especially the last few yrs.. these small cop as nues believe in it and expect a ROI..But fortune 500 companies , not so much
