Ok, a slight trolling exercise in the title, but that was a bit close!

Reminds me of my off at the ring, luckily not as bad but still a brown trouser moment.







I think if you got often enough you get very confident and in my case over confident, wet track and speed, well the above shows what's what.

I think she intended to intended to give the wker sign (directed at the Porsche driver) but was distracted by the epic display of smoke, expensive bits falling off and possibly a bit of poo coming out of the Porsche.

She was telling him that she "loved him for saving her" or she thought she was going to die and said "i've slept with your brother".


Just a thought it's not Ulrica or whatever her name was who showed Jezzer how to drive the 'ring.

One of the quickest parts of the track and quite tricky with breaking, turning left and the bumps.
Was the caterham driver fannying about ( not uncommon) and got in the way of someone going a bit too quick which then resulted in this crash?

The Porsche driver appeared to be very accomplished in breaking his car at that part of the track.

Impressive.

I always find it helpful when the passenger holds my wrist when I am trying to avoid a crashing car.
BTW, what's this to do with SP&L?

That was the longest crash I've ever seen. He seemed to be having the same accident for about half a lap.

Argh! Poor Rallye!

As for the porsche, looks like he went light over the rise with his foot planted. Nice!

There are some spectacularly stupid comments against that video. I say fair play to the driver. Kept it on the grey stuff despite a heart rate leaping to 240bpm I should imagine.

I could be wrong but that was my guess too. The Caterham moved to the left just before the accident.

That was lucky for both drivers.

Narrowly missing taking him out, then the Porsche didn't hit anything too hard given its speed and the angles it was travelling.

I wonder how badly damaged the Porsche was?
