She hit someone while coming in pit lane lmao

Quote:

Charles Buckman, a crewman for Dale Coyne Racing, is treated by crewman and emergency personnel after he was struck by a car driven by Danica Patrick as she returned to her pit during practice for the Indianapolis 500 auto race at Indianapolis Motor Speedway in Indianapolis, Friday, May 9, 2008. He was taken to Methodist Hospital with a concussion and lacerations.

I saw the video on the news.. im sorry but i was luaghing.. female drivers lol.. but i dunno if it was her fault, or the crew member shouldnt have been there.

HyperTek · 05-09-2008, 07:35 PM

i wasnt pickin on that, just thought it was funny cuz its gonna fall on the female stereotype tat she has

gabe30 · 05-09-2008, 07:37 PM

Sucks for the guy.

Fuel for the sexists.

"...came into the pits and hit Charles (Chuck) Buckman, the chief mechanic for Brazilian driver Mario Moraes at Dale Coyne Racing."

Eliminating the competition nice.

trsilvias13 · 05-09-2008, 08:00 PM

how many pit crew member get hit a year? any statistic? Just wanted to compare before making judgement.

Andrew Bohan · 05-09-2008, 08:04 PM

search on youtube. you don't have time to watch all the vids of crew members getting hit, corner workers getting cut in half by wings, drivers forgetting to brake and plowing headfirst into a wall, etc.

catastrophic mistakes are nothing new.

Brian · 05-09-2008, 08:06 PM

yeah, happens often...... no need for a special story just because it was her this time

DRavenS13 · 05-09-2008, 08:12 PM

Shoulda been looking where he was going. He stepped out in front of her when he was looking back at someone.

Typical male behavior.

qwikspool · 05-09-2008, 08:20 PM

that sucks for the dude.
female drivers

watch out for them....lol

True.

It even happens in F1. Happened in one of the first races of the season. It was kinda funny in slow-mo but sucked at the same time.
