“How he had landed, however, was worst case scenario, with the car upside-down and his head against the barrier, so there was no room to escape. It didn't take too much to work out that he was going to need help and, at first, I didn't even think about the car bursting into flames. The biggest thing was being able to get between the car and the barrier and move it enough to be able to get hold of him and drag him out of the cockpit. I just did whatever I could and Moreno's okay – and that's the main thing.”
Apparently undeterred by the incident, Winslow returned to the track for the restarted race later in the afternoon and took victory, paving the way to title success at the end of the season. Soeprapto escaped with only minor burns.
Winslow was presented with the prestigious Gregor Grand and Innes Ireland awards by the motorsport industry for his actions, and was subsequently awarded the Royal Humane Society's bronze medallion. He returned to Asia to clinch the regional Renault V6 championship in 2007 and is currently leading the Australian F3 standings.
