Not travelling at excessive speeds... distracted by the scenery... ?

"This is a car that was built in the early 90s that has some older electronic stability systems in place and there was a minor accident but we're obviously very confident that we have taken the appropriate safety precautions throughout the event."

Older, as in central nervous system?! Unfortunate, but I guess inevitable that of all the cars likely to be involved with the scenery at some stage this would be it.

80m of skid marks lol wonder how bad an f1 is at stopping from 100kps...

Have there been any reports on the damage to the car? The insurer, assuming there is one, will surely be looking at the circumstances quite closely in order to get out of paying what will surely be an expensive bill?
