Rest of the track seems ok though from my vantage point between bends 1/2 Would like see footage from Kings fall, at the time I thought Klindt was hard on him and didn't leave a lot of room, but king could have shut off rather than run out of track exiting bend 2. Or maybe that just the difference of opinion being a stars fan rather than ippo fan!!! Couldn't really see from where I was but just a typical Danish manouvre, you always take a risk going around the outside of one of them Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Or maybe that just the difference of opinion being a stars fan rather than ippo fan!!! Having stood opposite the exit of the second bend for 30 years now Klindt was 100% over the top on Danny, they were level and Klindt just rode him in the fence left him no racing room whatsoever ever, it’s different if you’re ahead and cut someone’s run off, that’s fair game but when they’re alongside and you just push them into the fence I’m sorry it’s bad form. I think it’s fair to say Danny certainly wasn’t expecting that from nicolai either, he’s usually hard but fair, Danny was very unimpressed when he came round to see if he was ok, lucky he wasn’t seriously injured.

kevin bass 276 Posted August 11, 2023 It reminded me a bit of the crash that Mark Loram had which finished his career when Simota left Mark with nowhere to go along the back straight, it may of been a few feet further along the back straight but was still a terrible accident.

25yearfan 476 Posted August 11, 2023 I thought the ref made the wrong decision in the King crash! Klindt was in front so was entitled to choose his racing line, King (fairplay for the effort) was trying to go through a gap that wasn't there! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bagpuss 10,822 Posted August 12, 2023 Would be good to see the Klindt/King incident as the two non Ipswich fans who have commented on it have suggested that it might not be the open and shut case we have been led to believe. Klindt isn't the type of ruder to fence people but also King doesn't tend to go for gaps which aren't there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
