They should stop racing on these stupidly narrow circuits.

It doesn’t even look like they were trying to slow down. Maybe iRacing isn’t that inaccurate

If gap, car.

I feel like that describes FormulaE very well. Gaps that don’t exist are constantly tried

Gran Turismo Online Daily Race A same energy. Sometimes Daily Race B too, especially this past week.

The hell? That last car lost its breaks or something? Just went straight into the wreck.

My guess is he was looking down at his steering wheel to adjust some setting, as he thought he was coming into a big empty straight.

The big crash happened 10 seconds after the car lost control. No yellow flags during this time?

Wow that's crazy! I've seen some formula e highlights on YouTube but where is a good place to watch reliably?

It really depends on your location. See https://www.fiaformulae.com/en/ways-to-watch

Time for us to pretend we care about driver safety.

There can always be more done for safety, but the fact no one was hurt is proof that people do indeed care about safety.
