Poor Matteo Malucelli. First he has a big wreck in Daytona, and then he did what you do when merging onto the highway, except he had the visibility of a racecar and no sideview mirror. A crash was the inevitable result.
Matteo had just spun out at the end of the front straight at Sebring, and was trying to get back into the race at turn one. Turn one is fast, with low visibility around the corner, so this looks like it might've been a "gun-it-and-pray-no-one's-coming" situation. Either way, it didn't end well.
Maybe he was distracted, too busy thinking about all you Jalops and your lovely questions. Better luck next time, Matteo.
