What was that car doing there? What if you fell there? I am surprized he gave up, maybe he knew he wasn't going to win? it didn't look like he missed a gate. Nice 360 though.
Because he lost balance and slipped a little higher up he knew he wouldn't get a good time. As for the car I think it's basically impossible to hit it with any real speed at the angle that jump is made. If anything it might soften the potential fall.
Audi! Why the fuck do you have to park your stupid car on the piste!! Sure, on skies should be the same as on foot for these guys. But it's same idea that you don't freaking park your car on the side walk.
