Notice the guy left his helmet on.
Since there were people around that were monitoring the situation and ready to pull Pruet off, I'd say they agreed with him since they let him continue the barrage. I've been around Pruet enough to know he doesn't have a problem. I just wish I had the audio.
Racing is very emotional. I remember clearing a 4 foot chain link fence at the kart track once to get into an "official's" face over a very bad call. Just like baseball, as long as I didn't deck the jackass, nothing happened as a result AFA being tossed out.

Pruett was running third. The incident was in turn one after a yellow.
Quoted from the Speed forum:
"Aha, on reviewing the broadcast, Angelelli hits Donohue as he comes by, just a split second before Donohue hits Pruett and turns him. Angelelli is also well away from the edge of the track when Pruett hits him. That adds up to there not being much room for Donohue between Angelelli and Pruett when Angelelli came by, and quite possibly Donohue being knocked into Pruett by Angelelli himself."
Probably karma.
