Hoping driver and passenger are uninjured. The video looks shot before the emergency services have arrived.

Can see a person semi lying down with others on the verge. Ouch.

Looks nasty, have the roof pillars collapsed?

Looks like a sizeable chunk of dry stone wall in the cockpit!

On a relatively straight piece of road.
Looks a very flimsy built thing.

I don't know if it's because it's upside down, but the steering column looks like it's well up into the roof (or the area where the roof used to be). And no driver airbag deployment?

Which would suggest it was already upside down when it hit the wall.

Some more pics, it was part of a group of 8-10 Ferrari on a run out through High Peak.

I had to use Google to find out what a Pista was.
Did anyone else, or do I have to hand in my PH card?

No, you weren't the only one who wasn't sure, especially since the name is used by other manufacturers too https://www.abarthcars.co.uk/abarth-595-pista

I hope everyone on board is OK.

It could just be the resolution of the video, but are those tyres looking somewhat worn?

I thought that, the fronts looked rather like slicks. Poor video, probably.

Yes, I was looking for the steering wheel bag but looks like it didn’t deploy.

The front of the car is only mildly deformed.

I wonder whether the semi-recumbent person on the verge is injured, or was lying back thinking "fk, what will the owner say".....

I initially thought it was the UK demo but different stripes.

Hope all involved recover OK.

A bit odd that he front left tyre is fully off the wheel and lying in the road?
