I seriously doubt it, because it was part of the plot for it to cause the Ferrari to go off through the barrier... they showed the piece vibrating loose in a shot of the rear of that car, followed by a rear facing shot of it bouncing back and down the banking towards and hitting the Ferrari.
Paul, thanks for posting the Popular Mechanics article... I remember all that stuff about the cannon being used to fire those cars around so Frankenheimer could control the filming of those crashes. I was a subscriber at the time and remember reading that piece start to finish several times after seeing the movie. I may even still have that issue in a box somewhere.
