It does prompt an interesting issue. Lots of people, maybe not you, but lots of others, watch auto racing to see wrecks. Then when a bad one inevitably happens, everyone's like, "Oh no, this is terrible."

Well, duh. You have cars driving bumper-to-bumper at 200 m.p.h and someone's eventually going to get hurt. But that's what people are paying to see.

Same observation goes to football.
Which begs the observation: The only time you took an interest, was to show the darker side of auto racing, made even "better" by a broadcast from another country. So be it, but for some, it's not amusing.
