About the hardest hit I can recall anyone taking in NASCAR for a good while, and raises the issue of pack racing all over again, following the Indycar race at Fontana, which seems to have divided opinion on the matter.

Staggeringly, Dillon was unhurt, although there were minor injuries to some spectators.

As much as I enjoy NASCAR, I do find myself becoming increasingly nervous when watching these sort of races, and find the way "The Big One" has almost become a brand to be really rather distasteful.

At what point does this sort of thing cease to become an accepted part of this sort of racing?
