00:00 >> Oh, no, trouble right there.
00:01 Something coming off of the car.
00:03 >> Hopefully not a brake rotor.
00:05 >> Yes.
00:06 Oh, my gosh.
00:07 Chandler Smith hard into the wall heading into turn number one.
00:10 Jeff, it looks like he applied the brakes there and shattered the rotor.
00:15 >> He realizes at this point once this starts to happen and he's got no brakes that what
00:20 was ahead of him was not a good situation.
00:25 No way of slowing this car down from this point other than what's the left turn right
00:30 here?
00:31 >> Scrub speed off on the wall.
00:35 That's still a hard hit on the driver's side.
00:37 >> It's exceptionally hard.
00:38 I don't know how you do it.
00:39 I don't know how you make yourself do that.
00:41 For a young race car driver to have the wisdom to do that.
00:46 The car doesn't drop or anything.
00:47 He turns the car over there.
00:49 I was questioning whether he knew to do that or not.
00:52 >> Every indication says that was on purpose.
