Crash

Postby Myfeckin FTO » Wed Sep 05, 2007 5:04 pm

Most of you guys have probably seen this crash before but I had previously presumed that there was fatalities. This extended version shows both drivers got out alive but the standard of the marshalling was dreadful.

Do not view if you are of a nervous disposition.

The manor in which the ferrari explodes into flames is very dramatic and worrying. Those marshals need a good female dog slapping. Far far too slow to respond, then bundling an almost legless driver into a minvan, wheres the stretcher?

To add to that the Ferrari driver was very badly burned - he was actually blinded at that point.

Also note the guy who was frantically waving the yellow flags from the tower just as the car exploded underneath him - I bet he got his eyebrows singed.
