Love how most of his recent tweets are bashful of cynical unfortunate implications.
One of them makes my country cry ;(

Condolences to the family and friends of the spectators. For armchair experts to attribute blame to Jann for crashing at this stage is extremely distasteful.

There's a second video from a different angle that shows the nose well in the air before the crest, it also looks like he lifted by the exhaust fume discharge as he crested, but it seemed as if all four wheels were well off the ground by then,

Because people might not know what you mean exactly... he was hit by the Safety Car at Monaco. As well as being hit by the Safety Car at the Hungaroring in the same season. That takes a special kind of genius

The fence got damaged and some parts were lying behind it. I saw this in an video coverage of the incident.

Yup, this layout is from when Hitler was still in prison writing Mein Kampf. Racers enthusiasm is what keeps it going not the assumption of safety it seems. I for one like the track and dont want it to go, as there's not enough money to make it TOTALLY safe and even all the money in the world likely wouldn't make this layout the same risk level as other tracks. I think there is a tolerated risk at this point on the ring. 10 deaths a year, mostly amateur track days........ The GT3 cars are pretty safe cars.
I remember the Daytona 500 this year, the safer barriers cost something like $500 a foot or something similar. The amount of money it cost to get ever bit of wall covered was financially draining. I remember Jimmie Johnson tweeted that it should be everywhere, I'm sure he can pick up the tab on that one. Then he cant win another 6 championships to pay off the debt.

So, if we take that into consideration then Jann might've made the mistake.
For those of you, who don't understand german, they said: "That was very close to a rollover. Maybe he was a little too long on the throttle. Right before Flugplatz, you have to go off the throttle or even brake a little to keep the car down, you cannot stay on the throttle and go "balls to the walls", that will not work."
Anyways, here are few highlights of yesterdays VLN Race, and they don't include any footage from the accidents, just as a little disclaimer for the mods

That's it. The DMSB have just announced GT3 cars are banned from competition. We aren't sure whether it's whilst the investigation continues or whether it's permanent, but it's the right thing to do, and pretty much the only immediate action that could've been taken.
This does include the Scuderia Glicks, by the way.

It was broadcast on German radio (SWR3 station). Could be a little while before the DMSB physically post stuff on their site about it; it is par for the course whilst the investigation takes place anyway. Nurburgring only, in case anyone was confused.

According to Marcel ten Catt on twitter licences are usually suspended pending an investigation.
Wait for official news.
