What we can't tell is what the 911 was doing before coming around and wiping out in front of the open cockpit vehicle. If the driver was being reckless, then, I would not blame the open cockpit driver for being angry. Otherwise...........what I can say is that they are fortunate that debris did not hit them head level ala Massa in F1 a couple or so years back when the spring from Barrichelo's care hit him in the helpmet and caused a significant concussion. It is my understanding that you are not to stop on the track.......only emergency vehilces are allowed to pull over and assist.

Agreed. Hard to tell if it was coming in too fast or not. It could have been much worse. - Ed

Looks to me as if the "Boo" is the calmer of the two, directing the driver to stay to the right as the 911 comes back across the track.

Two heads are better than one in this situation.
