Newman crashed hard onto his roof in 2009, and NASCAR added a roof support dubbed βNewman bar.β Odds are, a safety addition added because of him years ago saved his life yesterday. Crazy.

- in the midst of everything that occurred, let's not forget how much work went on behind the scenes to complete the #MonzaMadness event. Thank you @landoncassill and everyone who contributed. It was some of the most fun a lot of us have had on @iRacing βοΈ
- For years, I've been arguing that the top sim racers are really good drivers, and would kick ass given the proper training. Now we are seeing more and more get the chance to prove it. I couldn't be more proud of @EnzoBonito17. The future is bright @iRacing.
