  • Introduction to Video Content
  • Chase Elliott, the professional race car driver, had a minor accident during a practice session at the Las Vegas Motor Speedway. The incident occurred when Elliott's car hit the wall, causing damage to the right side of his vehicle. As a result of the accident, a red flag was raised, temporarily ceasing the practice session. At the time of the incident, there were still 11 minutes remaining in the practice session. Elliott mentioned that it was a tire issue that led to the crash, specifically referring to damage to the right rear tire. Interestingly, another driver, Larson, also mentioned experiencing a possible tire problem on the same lap with a similar number of laps on their tires. This raises questions about the safety measures taken by teams during practice sessions. Dave, an expert commentator, explained that teams often lower the air pressure in the back tires to increase grip and create more downforce. This technique is commonly used and found success in multiple tracks. However, during this particular practice session, the high speed and stress on the tires may have exceeded the target point for optimal pressure, leading to the tire issues experienced by both Elliott and Larson. It is a matter of luck and timing that Larson was able to detect the problem before experiencing a failure, while Elliott was not as fortunate. Elliott expressed disappointment about the incident, acknowledging that running too many laps may have contributed to the tire failure. He also mentioned that he was aware it was a tire issue, but was unable to prevent his car from hitting the wall. This incident adds to a series of similar occurrences throughout the year, leading to speculation about the ideal racing conditions and tire safety.
  • Subtitles section
  • And into the wall is chase Elliott.
  • So right side damage to the 9. And the red flag has come out on this practice session.
  • There's still 11 minutes to go.
  • So you just heard him say tire.
  • And a lot of damage right rear tire.
  • That is very interesting that he said that.
  • And a wreck.
  • And we just heard Larson talking about a tire, feeling like he might have a tire going down on the same lap with essentially the same number of laps on their tires.
  • Dave mentioned about having this early practice.
  • Having the grip in the track, the speed, the loads.
  • We know the teams find speed in running low air pressure in the back.
  • Getting the rear down.
  • Getting the diffuser closer to the ground to create down force.
  • Maybe they are in an area pressure wise that they feel comfortable with.
  • That they've ran at multiple tracks.
  • But with this early practice, extra speeds, extra loads, maybe shooting beyond that target point in loads that the tire is seeing that created this problem.
  • If that's exactly what's going on between Larson picking up on that problem before he has a failure and what we're seeing with the 9 car immediately after.
  • And if that is what happened, then, you know, some of that's luck.
  • Some of that Kyle Larson going down the back straightaway, comes off turn two or whatever and feels it.
  • He's like, oh, something's going on.
  • Chase Elliott drives in the corner and doesn't have a chance to feel it.
  • Some of that's just luck.
  • I had run 15 or so laps.
  • Maybe I ran too long.
  • I'm not sure.
  • But, yeah, it was a bummer.
  • I thought, I mean, yeah, I knew it was a tire for sure.
  • I just couldn't get stopped enough, you know, to keep it out of the wall, unfortunately.
  • But, yeah, it's definitely a bummer.
  • But it's been kind of been that way all year.
  • You think the conditions are just right?
  • High grip, cool temperatures and everybody tried to do what they can for speed?
  • I guess.
  • You know, I didn't feel like we were running more throttle than we have here in the past.
  • And it wasn't like I, you know, had run 30 laps or a fuel run.
  • So but we saw that, you know, I obviously missed the race here in the spring.
  • But I think that something similar happened last year.
  • It seemed like I was behind Kyle when he cut a tire early in a run like that.
  • So maybe I shouldn't have, you know, like I said, maybe I shouldn't have run so long.
  • But I liked how my car was driving and I wanted to see where it was going.
  • Good insight from Chase.
