Seen the race broadcast of this crash but never saw the press conference fully and definitely not these last comments by Reid, Goodyear & Cheever. Cheever summarised it really well. RIP Dan. Can't believe it has been over 12 years already since this... Time flies but he'll never be forgotten EDIT: Oh and first time seeing these driver interviews. I'm surprised a lot of the drivers could hold up the tears in the interview

I think this affected everyone.

If they had the cockpits enclosed like they do now he would likely still be alive.

Slush ie

Obviously Wheldon's family is sad and grieving, what kind of stupid question is that?

We miss you Dan. RIP.

I remember that October day vividly. Such a huge loss.

That XBOX beep brings back some good memories! I was a senior in high school when this happened

I was 11 years old when that happened

party

That reporter should not have asked that final question. Losing a family member is terrible.

it was thoughtful that they did a 5 lap soulute to dan wheldon

I think like a brother.

I don't know whether the track was to blame for Dan's death, But in all motorsport, Two or four wheels as like what happened To Luis Salom in MotoGP, even under the strictest Safety Tests and Regulation, Accidence can happen...

RIP

Junior's answer was perfect.....Nothing more need be said.

Jrs wearing glasses bc he his crying under them

I wouldn't have asked Jr to elaborate on the feeling whatsoever, if anything the final comment should have been "If anyone knows this kind of pain, it's this man right here, now back to you."

1:16 Buffering fail!

Even though he does have the unique insight into the family side of a driver's death, that is not a question to ask him on national television.

leave it to ESPN to try and bring up extremely personal thoughts and bad memories. it's none of your business espn; wow; that was rude

What a rude question to ask Dale Jr.

Whoever asked that I hope they got fired or lost credentials

from one Dan to another Dan RIP!

By cars

I never want to race again.

ESPN has never been the same since BP left them. BP was the best announcer, hands down.

God I hate ESPN

and it's the right thing to do

not a question i'd ask especially how bad the wheldon wreck was

espn is horrible with their nascar coverage this time around.that was a stupid question to ask him

Rip Dan and Dale Sr never forget. , ESPN fail at end

Xbox Live stinks with ESPN

why the hell would you ask jr bout losing his father that guy needed his ass whipped

Why would he even mention his father? So rude.

I guess it's true sometimes when bad things happen to good people. :(

if it was tony, that guy might not have had a face...

In one of the Jr best quotes vids you will hear him tell a reporter to make up what he thinks of it cause they do such a good job of making crap up.

That douchebag shoulda been punched in the face. What the hell is your problem? And you call yourself a reporter.

And they wonder why Nascar drivers are generally upset with the reporters....its because of stupid ass comments like that. Props to Jr. for not flipping out on that guy

no shit! what kind of person would ask that when you could hear in the guys voice he was shaken already

I can't believe how fast those cars shoot up into the air like that. There has to be at least 4 airborne cars there.

THE MEDIA IS SO FUCKING COLD BLOODED IT IS SICK. THEY;LL DO ANYTHING TO GET MONEY MONEY MONEY SINCE THAT IS ALL THAT THEY FUCKING CARE ABOUT. JUNIOR SHOULD HAVE KICKED HIS ASS!

Seriously the media gets a hard on for anything the ask Jr about his dad or Tony S about the race

The guy who asked that question sounded like that fat ass Ed Hinton.

Bad question! Jr at 48 sec looks like he was going snap!!!

that guy is lucky Dale Jr is the way he is and isn't like say Tony Stewart with the media, that reporter really needs to think before he opens his mouth

ONE MORE REASON WHY WE HATE NASCAR ON ESPN TODAY AND WHY THEY SHOULDN'T BROADCAST RACES ANYMORE!!!!!

they need to maybe not ask that kind of stuff

What a damned ass jerk that ESPN reporter him asking a retarded question like that to Dale Jr I was surprised that he kept his cool after that I would've called that reporter an a hole on live tv or embarressed him for saying that if he would've asked me that after my sister died I would have deck him right on his ass!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i
