Ingram ,first corner ,Austin .

Fair or foul ?......We'll see ,once the stewards have done the inquest in "the bus" as Tim calls it.

Who lost the wheel ?...saw it rolling on but not sure whose it was.

Indeed! Funny how there was no safety car with broken cars littering the circuit..

Very worrying when the commentators don't refer to it afterwards.

Jeez, that was bad. Made me jump being in car when the crash happened. Fingers crossed for both of 'em.

That was nasty, did look like both drivers moving in cars after. Hope nothing too serious.

I was only half paying attention and just looked up from my computer two seconds before that Formula crash. Made me jump!

It's surely not good that it's been so long and no real updates on anything. They've just shown a prerecorded Clio race and brought lunch forward. Very worrying. From what they just said it sounds like one or both of them might still be in the car. :-/

Didn't see the F4 race went out of the room after the BTCC and came back in with the Clios, missed what happened but have caught up.

Was it stopped on track or slowing?

A few minutes ago mentioned they were still working to remove drivers from cars in the safest manner. Lunch break brought forward. Didn't give any more than that.

They've just said they've brought forward the pit lane walkabout. I imagine the ITV4 people will be scrabbling around to keep finding things to put on without showing the track.

They're now going to show a prerecorded Ginetta Junior's race.
