Yes, Kendall had a massive smash there the same year that J.D. McDuffie had a fatal crash in that corner. I'm sure the combination of the two crashes (1991) are the full reason for the inner loop. Cervert was long ago even then ('73), and his crash was in the uphill esses (fyi there was actually a chicane at the bottom of the hill before the esses put in place for a little while in '75).
Anyways, looking forward to this one in a big way, the new paved runoffs will continue to make WG racing great!
