When they blow an engine like that, what actually happens to these race engines?

Mid pack racing rarely works

Thanks. But wanted to know more what pieces actually are destroyed in a race engine

j/k. Lots of things could happen but to me that one looked like a rod or something broke through allowing oil to shoot out and catch fire. Just a guess though.

They went back to green so quick I'm probably wrong. Oil would have been thrown on the track and it would have taken longer to clean it up.

I've heard the pistons are running closer than ever o the valves, so I suspect they punch a hole in the piston, and the cams follow..

Gordon knew it was coming and must have thought that or pieces were going to be coming at them
