Looking at it slo-mo, dark jersey's helmet saved his life. You could see his head smash into the pavement and what looks like a chunk of his helmet fly off. Guy in white lands square on his shoulder, at that speed and impact no doubt some serious damage. And copious road rash to all involved guaranteed.

I think you're responsible for your own ride regardless of the situation. There's no one assessing fault to cover damages
so insurance is not included in the $120 fee for this high risk sport
