Incidentally the red car was driven by Bob Higgins who refused to accept any responsibility for the incident!

You can donate here to get Darren Shepmans get back racing

Bob Higgins needs to be banned from racing.

The guy turns his head, looks in his mirror, and then swerves to the right.

He either:

a) Knows exactly what he did

or

b) Actually thinks he did nothing wrong.

b) is far worse than a) and I think Darren could sue Bob successfully.

Answer A I think he deliberately swiped Darren's car, the more I watch it the more horrific it seems.
Especially as it happened on a gentle left hander, meaning Darren was on the 'safe' side!

Stolen from Pistonheads:



The glance into his side mirror says it all, really. Forget racing, he shouldn't be driving cars at all.

His complete disregard for the safety of his opponent is disgusting
He should have his licence revoked immediately!

He glances in his door mirror but was Shepmans in his blind spot?

Surely rare for someone to wilfully drive another off the road ... unless your name's Ron, of course ...

But getting back to Higgins; the track goes left so there was no reason at all to jink to the right.

Maybe Higgins has his mirror positioned at his own face for vanity, as he does sound like a complete...

That was inexcusable. And no way is shepmans in the blind spot. He's too far back.
Higgins knew exactly what he was doing but I doubt he meant for shepmans to hit the barrier like that, just to put him on the grass.
