One of the Indycar drivers had the same crash, on the same corner, during the race. I think there is a dip in the pavement that you go over coming out of the pits that compresses the suspension and then unweights the rear axle, making it very easy to spin. He's driven this track before, so I wonder if that dip had grown worse since the last time Mark had driven there.

there is a tunnel under that turn - I can imagine with Freeze/Thaw, the bump could change. The whole course is crazy bumpy.
