I've seen a bit of this on various sites. What's the reasoning behind it? Does anyone know the story?

What is there to be unhappy about? The engine had already let go, he just made sure of it...... :twisted:

+1! They'd probably put a new engine anyway but he blew it out frustration... I'm sure the KRT's marketing ppl were not that thrilled with those images. hahaha

LOL, I didn't catch that when I watched it. I was wondering what would make an engine die, then blow. I would've thought it would blow at the time of death, then I was thinking maybe it didn't completely die but was running wrong when he pulled off, then it got worse.
I didn't even notice him revving the guts out of it :lol: I guess the flames were too attention-grabbing for me!

Probably got back to the pits and went "Analyse that....."
