"interesting" crash at Fontana

Not PCA thankfully.
Almost as debate laden as Carrera GT crash at the same track.

Caveat: I wasn't there and only have details as reported but so far it looks like another case of $250K car and $1.50 driver with a bit of hyper-machismo thrown in for seasoning. A perfect recipe for a big crash and fortunately everyone walked away this time. Just no reason at all for a McClaren to dive-bomb a BRZ entering 9. Someone might have benefited from the PDS.
