Re: Tony Stewart-Kevin Ward / Sprint car accident
Alan R,
You have nailed it perfect at this time. If a video or a still shows up with the kid slipping on the wet track into Tony's car it will change the opinions again.
The video is on one axis, if there's one from 90 degrees from there we might learn a bunch. The latest says he contacted the wing first which would unbalance him to fall.
I believe at this point that Tony goosed it in an attempt to clear him as the fellow was coming into his cars space and surprised the heck out of him. He probably had limited visibility from following the car in front of him under caution, then he see's that racer make an evasive move and has no idea it's because a person is heading his way on the track!.
Tony could have been looking in a completely different direction at the time, like his head is down or sideways checking setup and gauges, we will never find out about that.
I hope Tony takes the rest of the year off to regroup and protect his many interests in motorsports and marketing. He's good for the sport.
Whatever happens in the future, nothing good will come out of this except that the rule to stay in ya car until safety workers have secured the scene, pending fire, makes really good sense and will be enforced, here on out.
Also, take your bravado back to the pits and attempt to settle it there instead of playing a drama queen. Honestly, what are you going to prove with the on-track grievance apart from the show boating to ya local fans. Young and dumb I suppose.
RIP, Kevin Ward Jr., another senseless waste of a human life, condolences to the combined Ward family on your lose of a loved one.
