(watch all the way through as the first incident is not the interesting one)
Maybe he should keep both hands on the wheel.

idiot!
i doubt much will come of it, if it were down to me he'd get a race ban and be made to pay for damage to both cars!
the Nissan went for an overtake knew he'd not make it and slamed the anchors on, yes he clipped the Aston sending it spining, but that hapens in racing.
i doubt the Aston idiot meant to cause the crash, was more likely looking to give him an unsavoury hand gesture as he passed, but it went wrong and totaled his car and damaged and ended the Nissan drivers race. that could be seen as a deliberate accident by some stewards.

this was taken off the GT1 website -
Stefan Mucke, Young Driver Aston Martin No.8
“We had a really good start but there was no real chance to pass the Lamborghini’s in front. Anyhow, we approached the complex at Becketts and I felt a hit from behind and it was the Nissan that hit me. I haven’t seen on TV what actually happened behind me but you can’t overtake there. I got spun around but was able to continue. We came up to Hanger Straight and I saw the Nissan quite slow on the left hand side and focused on my line for the next corner. He was very slow and I passed him a little bit too close. It was definitely my mistake but I was just focused on taking my line. I touched him very slightly but he was going very slowly and I thought he may pull to the left. I touched him with my rear left and he had a problem after the contact and that’s how the accident happened.”
i like how he admits it was his fault, yet tries to defend it by being 'so focused on his line'??
surely having seen the slowing Nissan it would have made more sense to have given it a bit more room, considering the Nissan was over as far as it could get so dont know how he thinks they could have moved over anymore?
he also seems to have completely forgotten that he was giving the Nissan driver a 'friendly' hand gesture right up to the point he crashed, but that must be because he was so 'focused on his line'
