It's not just the collapsible column that is an issue, it is also that if you hit something on the corner/side of the car it has the potential to turn the front wheels violently which of course also turns the steering wheel which can easily break hands/wrists etc.

hope they aright?

Me too, in the video you can see someone flying a long way behind the stand, I hope it was because they jumped.

Doesn't matter, the driver has broken wrist and leg, he's out. Not sure if you can get another driver in at this late stage.

Flaggies very lucky. If it weren't for the extra fencing recently put in, i'd say they'd be dead.
