Bryce was at the track for night 2, so out of hospital thankfully.
But did I hear the commentators say something about an injury that would prevent him going to the UK??? Might have misheard.


(And Lala was there too after a tractor ride to the medical shed Friday night. Was 6 superstock drivers in the A&E at 9.00pm!)

Good to see he is ok but would be a shame if he cant go to the UK. Think he his one of the most respected drivers around

According to his FB page... broken pelvis. So yeah - gonna need a fair bit of recovery time.

We never wanted to see that steiny is 1 of the best driver and a great person to talk to and been around for a long time and also been with the rebels . I knw there a lot of people that was worried straight after that race and the night went from great to worse after that race . Get well , rest up and hope to see u around.

Well said Matthew7 , we didn't see the hit on the live stream but we certainly saw the damage to the car. I felt gutted too.
Hope both Steiny and Lala are mended real soon

Also Hope the rule allowing hits on stationary cars gets a rethink urgently (assuming that's what happened).

It was pretty much in front of me bt Lala 1 was just bad luck when nick valance was getting push by another car and drove straight into him , watching on video made it look worst

Um Stiener facing wall out of turn 2. W car accelerated(not full pace) into Stiener I think hitting more towards rear of car.

Hope to see him out racing again as he is awesome to watch(and pays good at the tab)

I wish Steiny a speedy recovery, it is never good when a driver suffers a serious injury, and no-one wants to see it happen.

My recollection of the incident was that Steiny was turned around facing the wall and within a matter of seconds(say 2 or 3) of being turned around was hit, so whilst "stationary" at the time, even with the unfortunate injury sustained, I just can't see how it can be policed, especially when cars attack from a stationery position.

I don't want this to go "off topic" as this should be about Steiny, well wishes and his recovery, but I thought Macgors comment needed some clarification, from what I remember seeing.
