This is flat out scary from Friday night's practice at the Fontana Speedway in the concluding race of the 2014 IndyCar season involving Mikhail Aleshin and the low groove.
Aleshin was listed in serious but stable condition with a with a concussion, fractured ribs, a broken right clavicle and chest injuries. Qualifying had been frozen at the time of the wreck and Aleshin, actually, had the 8th fastest time on the grid for the season finale.
Sadly, Fontana has had a lot of wrecks in the track's IndyCar history including racers like Will Power, AJ Allmendinger, Scott Dixon, Tony Kanaan, and Takuma Sato. Greg Moore passed during the 1999 race at Fontana from injuries he received in his crash.

Tire Issues Cloud Fontana All Race Long
((HT: NASCAR on FOX))
The HQ will maintain that if it walks like a duck and quacks like same, then...
Well, you know...
We'll show you what happened all day at the NASCAR event in Fontana...
The ending...
Kevin Harvick on Lap 20
Roush-Fenway drivers driving
And Jimmie Johnson
But NASCAR is not hearing that Goodyear is at any kind of fault...

#NASCAR's Robin Pemberton says tire issues not a @GoodyearRacing problem. "I think Goodyear has done a pretty good job with it"
Obviously, the drivers were going way too fast...

At Least Joey Logano Is Consistent- Fighting 2 Weeks In A Row
((HT: NASCAR on FOX))
For the second week in a row, Joey Logano has created some angst and agita at the end of a NASCAR event...
This time it was created with Tony Stewart at the restart at the end of the race at Fontucky...
Both made it over the finish line (in various pieces), but when they both made it to pit road Stewart had had enough...
He'd had all he can stands and can't stands no more...
Punches were thrown... and the HQ sides with Stewart in this one...
Oh, the 18 car won and Dale Junior finished second...
No word on whether or not the 14 and 22 are heading to the Big Red Truck at present...
More when we know more...
Here's another version of the fight with some Steve Byrnes-ian post edited in...
