When asked about the crash, Devlin DeFrancesco said he was scared of the mess: “I’m fine, but it was a really hard blow and not the way you would want to start the season. I saw Helio turning in front of me and I slammed on the brakes, but there was nowhere to go. I just prepared myself for it. It was a wild ride”.
