Default John Force Kenny Bernstein crash, Force injured

Just heard on the NASCAR race, there's a short blurb on the NHRA website if you can get it to open:

http://www.nhra.com/content/news/24436.htm

So far, Force with a broken arm + both legs, possible concussion, Bernstein OK

Looks like Force had rear tire failure that swerved him to the right?

I'm gettin' old and my eyes aren't what they used to be but it looks as if Bernstein may have touched one of the orange markers in the middle of the track and sent it into Force(?)

It's hard to tell from that angle and I'm sure there were other cameras, but it kinda looks like Bernstein's car kicked that timer box under Force's rear tire. Anybody seen a different view yet that can elaborate maybe?

Unbelievable amount of energy to tear that car in half.
