Lots of tracks are made of some certain Russian hardwood or something like that. It's hard, fast, and doesn't warp easily with temperature and humidity changes.

The splinter was probably exposed by a rider that went down in front of Awang and that rider's pedals, bars, or axle, etc... took a chunk out of the wood exposing the splinter for Awang to slide into. It's (obviously) a freak accident.
