That was one of the worst things I've ever seen in my life. When they came back from commercial and there were tarps over what turned out to be Wheldon's car, I was pretty sure what had happened.

I thought Davey Hamilton (who was hospitalised for several months after a scary wreck that broke both his legs several years ago) had some interesting things to say:

'What the hell did they think was going to happen with this many field fillers (myself included) at this particular track?'

I'm not necessarily pointing fingers, but there were alot of people who really didn't know what they were doing racing too hard too early in that pack when it happened.

In retrospect, it's not really fair to call them 'Field Fillers':

There was a 5 million dollar bonus for any non series regular to win, which is why Wheldon was there in the first place and starting in the back.

He'd moved up 10 spots in 11 laps. But 3 and 4 wide at 200 MPH is just a recipe for disaster for part timers.
