It's just sad that spectators suffered.....
Agreed.

But then I doubt many of them would have paid for a ticket to see airliners safely "race" around the track at 250 kts and 1500' AGL while limited to 30 degrees bank angle either. People flock to Reno every September to see the spectacle of air racing. This year the Friday attendees unfortunately got more than they bargained for. I was considering making the 500 mile drive up for Sunday. I hope I have the option next year.
