heres is a fuller replay with some interesting comments
some people are blaming the marshalls for not waving the blue flag signaling a pass coming up

Yeah seems the Toyota was passing and the Ferrari didn't see him coming... Kinda happens last year when a Ferrari punted an Audi no?
Drivers seem to be okay. Amateur drivers again in the Ferrari.
Just heard Toyota hit the Nissan!

I watching it early, I would love to see the camera feed from inside the Toyota (if that is the one with the actual live feed).
F.U Ferrari!

Nakajima crashes into the deltawing and is now 4laps down. Crap in F1 and still crap now.

Car #7 has now retired as well with a complete power loss. Sad end to a promising beginning.

I couldn't see the angle very well but that deltawing sure looked like it took a beating well, I expected it to snap in half. I will agree with the commentators that even though Naka did screw up, a black car , with very little road presence and not lit would be very hard to see

So Toyota couldn't win and decided to take out the competition (Deltawing) as well.
F U Toyota!
