"2006 Champion" made me angrier than this incident did.

Yep, Kelly did hit the brake right at the moment of first impact. He subsequently went into bulldozer mode..

He posted that image, but I dont see what it actually tells us. Yes, he hit the brakes, you can see that from the tv. The fact that he got off the brakes is why everyone is pissed.

And 2006 champion.. yeah.

[nastysven]

what a total shit fight.

Since I've done far too much partying in the 00's.. why people upset at Kelly being 06 champion?
Other than the fact he's a fuckhead.. attended mates night club with his brother 1 year on the goldcoast as part of the Indycarnival (as it was back then) and he was just a bell end to "fans" etc.

I really don't get the hate towards Kelly regarding this incident..

[Gin Kii]

Who is he ?

Pitlane in PI is notoriously narrow.

Closing it under safety car is probably a good thing.

That is such a weird article. Surely it has to be deliberately misleading?

He knows the same thing that everyone else can see from the outside view from the back, is that he hit the brakes and then let them go.

What a load of crap. Soon they'll only allow overtaking on straights as it's too dangerous through corners.

Because he got his teammate Todd to punt into Lowndes during the final round, Todd copped a drivethough for his shit punt, CL car was damaged and Rick went on to win

Yup and yup - the fact they allowed it to happen was a joke, but they couldn't have Ford win again again Stone Brothers domination.

Wasn't Kelly affectionately known in the game as Crash Bandicoot for some years?

And I am fascinated to know who is paying the money to the broadcasters to have Kelly as part of the on screen "talent". Whoever they are, I wish they would just stop.
