You have GOT to be kidding me!!!
I have seen some amateurs on safety crews before (usually at short and dirt tracks), but these clowns who let Simona roast are the WORST I have EVER seen!

Luckily she just burned her hand a bit (from pushing herself up & out of the car). It appeared that she did more to get herself out than any of those clowns did.
That was without a doubt one of the worst displays that I have ever seen from a safety crew. And I've seen bad crashes where the "safety crew" was made up of local guys from the volunteer fire dept and the volunteer rescue squad. Firings are in order. Without a doubt. Who is in charge of the safety crew these days, the series or the track? Who do these bozos work for???"Every generation's memory is exactly as long as its own experience." --John Kenneth Galbraith

Man. I'll have to find a youtube video of that. Very glad she didn't get burnt bad.

Terrible. I though Indycar got the "amazing CART safety team" as part of the merger? It looked like nobody made sure the fire hoses worked this weekend, or was trained on how to use them. Meanwhile the one guy that wasn't afraid of the fire was trying his darnedest to break her back.N.Hayden L.Hamilton D.Earnhardt R.Gordon S.Speed T.Stewart J.P.Montoya G.Rahal Ferrari Lotus

Yeah, she was probably half an inch taller after he got done with her. But since his mates seemed content to stand around and watch her die in the fire, I guess he decided that she might die from him yanking on her, but she wouldn't die from being burned up.

Simona's composure in her interview not long after, is testement to this young Lady.. however I do think some of her 'coolness' in that may be due to adreneline, & once she goes to bed this evening, or has time to sit down & reflect & see the video she may well be a little less calm.. & rightly so. Mentally that could shake her up a bit, knowing the very time she needed help, it took an eternity to get its act together. They pretty much failed her. imo

only 1 guy was actually trying to get her out of there, so but if its a fire, pull me out as fast as you can, how you think they wanted to pull her out, nice and slow, let her roast some more, she might've had a strap get struck to her or something, but I'm pretty sure being in a fire, I'd like to get yanked out as fast as possible. the others should not have a job anymore though
