What's interesting is searching for actual event witness quotes.

Read the comments and witness quotes...

I watched this video, repeatedly watching the moment of impact. What I saw was that Tony turned the wheels to the right and blipped the throttle, just prior to impact, which would have flipped the tail to the left, away from the person on the track. You can see the back end kick to the left just a little, a little too late. My supposition, and it is only that, is that TS picked him up out of the corner of his eye and tried to take an evasive maneuver.

Either way, this is going to be a mess. I doubt we will ever see TS in a car again.

I'm certainly NOT taking sides in this incident. It is a tragedy to be sure. But you should never, ever get out of your race car onto the track to confront someone.
