He should have kept going. That wheel would have come off and stopped smoking eventually.

I was watching that action in person from the grandstands. That whole race was a clusterfuck of crashes. Black flagged for a while then they came back on and did 5 or so laps under green.

Awesome! I love the way neither driver lifted when wheels were interlocked & parts were braking. Also, the camera car's blips while ON TOP of the other car indicate that he was still optimistic at that moment.

I suspect I'm not alone in generally thinking that open wheel drivers are a bit softer than us fender bashers. Not feeling that right now though.
