I've started track marshaling and Karts on-top of other karts is a rare occurrence on our track that I've seen so far, although there was 2 in one day a week ago. From what I have seen, it is usually people who haven't listened to the briefing or feel they don't need to listen and know better. They usually go as fast as they can on specific corners, hit the wall and bounce up. A guy was close to having a kart land on his foot the last time. Unfortunately, not everyone tries to race cleanly and give space. We have some that love a bump and run or try to drive you into a wall as they pass. From what I saw in your video, the kart on the very inside pushed you both wide, causing the crash. Glad everyone is okay!
I personally would not put blame on anyone here, genuinely seems like it just got messy and quickly escalated, no punishments should be given out, and i hope none were.
Unfortunately the three wide crash was always going to happen with the trajectory that the inside 2 karts were taking. It was unfortunate and I don't think you'll often see 3 karts in that same position going into that corner but the gap was closing up and it was avoidable, other times you'd just end up facing the wrong way but with how close everyone was it ended up with a kart being sat on top of another. Glad no-one got seriously hurt.
Its very bad form that it got heated in the discussion room and the marshals having to leave. Its also a shame people can't follow proper driving etiquette and ruin it for a lot of people. Good to hear there are some sensible people that know when to walk away from a potentially dangerous situation and that you didn't just continue for content. Nice racing when it got going. There was going to be no way you could have passed kart 10 with his acceleration. Happy to know everyone is OK.
Yes, I enjoyed the race and was slowly catching up. As you say, unlikely I'd have found a way past, but I'd have liked a few more laps to at least try!
Really unlucky crash that, never seen one like it. Hard to tell who was at fault, but it looked like a combination of 2 drivers bumping karts on the inside of the corner to me.
gotta say its closer to a racing incident then it is anything else but if someone is to blame it would have to be the person trying to make it 3 wide on entry to turn 2, thats just never happening around Sheffield, someone would end in the wall
Really bad one crash that one. This happened to me at Cardiff a few weeks ago when I was pushed into the wall at the fastest section of the track. Luckily everyone came out okay but my ribs do still hurt a little Glad kart 19 was able to carry on after the incident and I hope he makes a full recovery

Exactly that! Two wide on entry, then three wide on exit as someone has pushed their way through and then didn't leave any room on exit!

No-one was punished. It was completely avoidable though!
@@RobGoesRacing Completely Agree!

It was 2 wide on entry, 3 on exit! You can see the problem! 😂👍
Hello my name Kyle you been to any London Go Kart circuits

Yeah, it was two wide on entry and then 3 wide on exit - with the new kart in the front. There is only one way that can happen!

It was 2 wide on entry, 3 wide on exit! That only happens one way!
It just sounds a bit of a disaster
Hopefully it's better if you do it again
It was indeed! Normally this one is a good event. 👍
