I cringe when I watch motorsport accidents, nothing worse than wondering whether or not they will walk away.

Heiki Kovalainen's crash a few weeks ago is a perfect example, 15 years ago, he would have been removed from that car and put into a body bag.

Holy s**t. Lucky little bugger. Is this with the lawnmower-engined dragsters or with a real car?

guys use the [ youtube ] [ /youtube ] tags..
In the youtube URL the jumble of letters and numbers after the v= in the url, i.e.
for youtube.com/watch?v=kMKE0NPT6UA&feature=related

(remove whitespace for it to work)
[ youtube ]kMKE0NPT6UA[ /youtube ]
