It is quite a shame and this kid was only 20. Must have been quite talented to be driving with some of the best. I will say, agree or not, that I think that the attach on Stewart is only because of his known temper flares, he can be an ass and is not overly liked but if it were any other driver, it would be chalked up to a tragic accident avoidable if Ward stayed in his car until it was safe. Even under caution, cars are still moving and body against car is no match. And if the statement made in the post by Wolf above is accurate, that that side of the car is quite blinded to the driver, then that is what this may come down to, a tragic accident, nothing more. But Tony will still have to live with it as anyone would regardless of the circumstances.
Ward should have stayed in his car and taken his dispute up with Tony off track. And he probably knew that but at that moment, that was probably the last thing on his mind at that moment...
Just tragic... Condolences to his family and friends.
