"...came into the pits and hit Charles (Chuck) Buckman, the chief mechanic for Brazilian driver Mario Moraes at Dale Coyne Racing."

Eliminating the competition nice.

[trsilvias13]

how many pit crew member get hit a year? any statistic? Just wanted to compare before making judgement.

[Andrew Bohan]

search on youtube. you don't have time to watch all the vids of crew members getting hit, corner workers getting cut in half by wings, drivers forgetting to brake and plowing headfirst into a wall, etc.

catastrophic mistakes are nothing new.

[Brian]

yeah, happens often...... no need for a special story just because it was her this time

[DRavenS13]

:ugh: Shoulda been looking where he was going. He stepped out in front of her when he was looking back at someone.

Typical male behavior.:fawkd:

female drivers:x: watch out for them....lol

[muddafakka]

Sucks for the guy.

True.

It even happens in F1. Happened in one of the first races of the season. It was kinda funny in slow-mo but sucked at the same time.
