Apparently Dan Wheldon is not in good shape. Rollover bar on his car failed

:O! I really hope he recovers from that!

Was Mike Conway involved? He's my MD's son

Yikes!

Hope no one's seriously injured, or worse..

I hope he makes a speedy recovery! I never like to see this in motorsport.

Yeah, Griff's video really shows how nasty the accident was.

That can't be good

Wow the racing is so boring that I would be only going to watch it to see massive crashes like this.

austonharris Drivers are saying they don't want too continue racing, I honesty can't blame them. #IndyCar

austonharris Just got word that #danwheldon's vitals are okay BUT he's still unconscious #IndyCar

.Griff. · 16 Oct 2011 at 22:28

The photo of Wheldons car shows it's literally had the top sheared off.

Skillmister · 16 Oct 2011 at 22:31

Horrible crash. Look how damn high in the air the car is, just insane.

Seriously impressive how fast all the support vehicles get to the scene though

CaptainRAVE · 16 Oct 2011 at 22:32

To be honest, the more I read about the race, the more it sounded like an accident waiting to happen. 34 cars on a 1.5 mile circuit, seriously?

Housey · 16 Oct 2011 at 22:33

I fear the worst for this one...

CaptainRAVE · 16 Oct 2011 at 22:33

Hope this is misinformed and the usual rumour rubbish that goes on surrounding an incident like this -

Careful folks. Some idiots are playing games with this terrible news about Dan Wheldon. @AshleyJudd did NOT confirm death on Twitter.
