Austin Green's Brake Failure at Sonoma

Austin Green had a heart-stopping brake failure during practice at Sonoma, slamming into the tire barrier but walking away unharmed—thanks to modern safety tech and quick medical response. The wreck halted the session for nearly 30 minutes, and while Shane van Gisbergen led after practice, Corey Day snatched the fastest lap at the end. Van Gisbergen locked in pole position in qualifying, with Brent Crews right behind. Green, known for his road course prowess, remains a top contender despite the scare—this marks the second straight week a car has breached a barrier in the series, echoing last week’s San Diego incident.
