We'll Miss You - Dario Franchitti!!



The whole scene from the Dario Franchitti's Indy Car crash in Houston Race #2. After this accident Dario announced his retirement from car racing. Franchitti, upon his return to Indy Car in 2009, won three straight championships from 2009 through 2011. He also won the Indianapolis 500 three times. The scotsman ends his career tied for eighth place on the all-time winner list with 31 career wins and 33 pole positions.

"One month removed from the crash and based upon the expert advice of the doctors who have treated and assessed my head and spinal injuries post accident, it is their best medical opinion that I must stop racing. They have made it very clear that the risks involved in further racing are too great and could be detrimental to my long term well-being. Based on this medical advice, I have no choice but to stop."
- Dario Franchitti
