Whatever got thrown at JHN on the track was a little too close for comfort. Certified DARF. Don’t be this idiot. pic.twitter.com/PvnnXvk8up

Who throws a full beer? Only the worst people would ever throw something at another person, but that's like a $10 projectile.
Apparently, this is a thing in racing. Not the beer part, but interviewing guys on the track where they are vulnerable to something like this instead of on victory lane. Imagine if this beer had hit the driver or the even more vulnerable interviewer.
