Ferrari driver's fault because the Toyota had his front wheel in front of the Ferrari. From Davidson's point of view, the Ferrari had given him that room on the right to pass. The Ferrari Driver closed the door without making sure anyone was in it.

Regardless, it is good to hear ANT will heal from his injuries.

...Got out of the way! That Toyota Hybrid was fast and that Ferrari driver knew that the only way to stop the Toyota was to clip him from the rear, cause him to spend out...But at that rate of speed the cars use downforce to keep them glued to the track. Yeah there's Toyota haters on the track as well as on this site and everywhere on the planet. Think that'll stop them Japanese, you have another thought comin! If Arnold can come back, what do u think Toyota will do? And they have a whole lot more money than the Governor Terminator!
